Two-stage coal liquefaction process with interstage guard bed

An improved coal liquefaction process is disclosed wherein subdivided coal is substantially dissolved in a process-derived solvent in the presence of added hydrogen, thereby forming a mixture of dissolved coal, solvent and insoluble solids, and said mixture is passed through a guard bed of solid por...

More Information
Summary:An improved coal liquefaction process is disclosed wherein subdivided coal is substantially dissolved in a process-derived solvent in the presence of added hydrogen, thereby forming a mixture of dissolved coal, solvent and insoluble solids, and said mixture is passed through a guard bed of solid porous contact material, such as alumina, in the presence of hydrogen, to deposit titanium, iron and calcium from the mixture prior to hydrocracking.
