REMOVAL OF PHENOLS FROM PHENOL-CONTAINING STREAMS

A process for removing phenols from phenol-containing hydrocarbonaceous streams such as coal liquids by contacting the stream with a multivalent metal composition which is an oxide and/or hydroxide of one or more multivalent metals capable of forming a hydroxy metal phenate with the phenols of the s...

Summary:A process for removing phenols from phenol-containing hydrocarbonaceous streams such as coal liquids by contacting the stream with a multivalent metal composition which is an oxide and/or hydroxide of one or more multivalent metals capable of forming a hydroxy metal phenate with the phenols of the stream; separating the hydroxy metal phenate from the treated stream; and heating the hydroxy metal phenate to its decomposition temperature, thereby forming phenols and oxides of the multivalent metal.
