Abstract
The hydroliquefaction of 3 lithotypes of Yallourn brown coal was investigated over molten salt catalysts (ZnCl/sub 2/ and/or SnCl/sub 2/ and/or KCl) at 400 C, and a cold pressure of 100 kg/cm/sup 2/ H/sub 2/, for 3 h. With melt catalysts, conversions ranged from 66 to 77 wt% for pale, 50 to 65 wt% for medium light, and 41 to 65 wt% for medium dark. Pure ZnCl/sub 2/ gave the lowest conversion and oil yield among the molten salt catalyst systems, and the melt containing KCl was found to give higher conversion than the corresponding KCl-free melt for each lithotype.
