Abstract
ABSTRACT Samples from two major deposits of Turkish lignites were subjected to supercritical toluene extraction at 325°C and 14.1 MPa in an autoclave. The resultant extracts were separated into pre-asphaltene, asphaltene, saturates, aromatics and resin fractions by column chromatography. The fractions were characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR. and elemental analysis in order to compare the chemical composition of extracis from the two coal samples. The results show that the extracts from the Tungbiiek (T-coal) deposits contain aliphatic constituent which is composed of mostly long chain unbranched alkyl compounds while the extracts from the Soma Mcrkeg (S-coal) deposits contain a significant amount of branched paraffinic compounds. The resin fractions from both samples were found to contain a significant amount of single ring aromatic compounds.
