Abstract
Hydrogenation of the same coal in an autoclave using stannous chloride as the catalyst was carried out with donor and non-donor solvents and without solvent at 400° and 450°C. The conversion, product distribution and chemical nature of the oil and asphaltene were very similar with donor and non-donor solvents. However, in the absence of solvent the conversion and the liquid yield were lower, the gas yield higher and the liquid product was more aromatic. At 450°C the gas yield was higher, the asphaltene yield lower and both the oil and asphaltene were more aromatic than at 400°C, both with and without solvent. A possible explanation for the effect of solvent is given.
