Counterflow Reactor (CFR) Technology has proven to be successful for processing bituminous and subbituminous coals in both coal liquefaction and in coprocessing with heavy oils. The technology has the potential for a variety of processing options including coprocessing of waste hydrocarbons (used plastics and rubber tires) with coal. Preliminary testing of plastics and rubber crumb has been completed using a batch autoclave (1 litre) procedure. Solubilization of low density polyethylene in a coal derived solvent was enhanced by the presence of coal.
