- Summary
- The subject program pertains to the assessment and control of potential pollutants from Brookhaven National Laboratory's Flash Hydropyrolysis of Coal Process (FHP) and from related coal liquefaction processes currently under development at Rocketdyne, Cities Service, IGT, and CCNY. Data obtained from the experimental FHP unit currently in operation at BNL will provide the primary basis for our analysis; however, we will attempt to extend and generalize our findings and conclusions by reviewing and analyzing the available literature and data on the related processes identified above. Common problem areas and applicable technology will be identified as well as significant differences in effluents and required control technologies. The overall objective of the program is to generate data and information essential for the application of coal liquefaction processes to industrial systems. This report presents information on: (1) the polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons contained in the organic phase of the FHP liquid product; (2) the carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulfur, and trace elements content of the FHP organic liquid product; (3) the elemental composition of coal and char obtained from the FHP unit; (4) the volatile matter contained in the coal feed and FHP char product; and (5) a conceptual process flow plan for a FHP-Chemical complex (including material balance).
