Abstract
The use of low amounts (≤ 0.5 wt %) of unsupported, fine-particle size (< 40 nm), iron-based catalysts in direct coal liquefaction has the potential to enhance desired reactions and minimize retrogressive reactions because of the very high surface areas and good dispersions attainable with these catalysts. The objectives of this project are to establish standard activity test procedures for these types of catalysts and to use these procedures at Sandia National Laboratories for evaluating and comparing the activities of the many catalyst formulations being developed in the Advanced Research Coal Liquefaction Program that is funded by the United States Department of Energy's Pittsburgh Energy Technology Center (PETC)
