DIRECT COAL LIQUEFACTION PROCESS

A direct coal liquefaction method and apparatus in which the feed coal is mixed with a recycled 600° F.+ non-donor stream in which the ratio of coal to said stream is at least 1.5:1 on a moisture free basis to form an input slurry to a DCL reactor. Hydrogen containing treat gas is supplied to the re...

Zusammenfassung:A direct coal liquefaction method and apparatus in which the feed coal is mixed with a recycled 600° F.+ non-donor stream in which the ratio of coal to said stream is at least 1.5:1 on a moisture free basis to form an input slurry to a DCL reactor. Hydrogen containing treat gas is supplied to the reactor. 1000° F.− bottoms from the reactor are recycled as part of the 600° F.+ non-donor stream. 1000° F.+ bottoms from the reactor are gasified in a PDX unit to provide hydrogen for the DCL reaction. The ratio of recycled bottoms to feed coal is between 1:0.5 and 1:1.5.
