Progress in US ERDA's coal liquefaction projects is reported. These involve bench-scale through pilot plant operations with several processes: SRC process, SYNTHOIL process, H-COAL process, CLEAN COKE process, ZINC HALIDE HYDROCRACKING process and the DONOR SOLVENT (EXXON) liquefaction process. Related projects involved filtration and other studies for separating the solid minerals from the coal liquids, upgrading and refining coal liquids, characterization and analysis of coal liquids, hydrogenation, hydrocarbonization and/or hydroprocessing of coal, solvent-refined coal extracts or residues, flash pyrolysis, etc. The CRESAP equipment test facilities are being renovated. Also, work on the potential use of coal liquids as chemical feedstocks is reported. (LTN)
