Development of Continuous Solvent Extraction Processes for Coal Derived Carbon Products. Quarterly Report.

DE2005841535

Publication Date	2005
Page Count	72
Abstract	The purpose of this DOE-funded effort is to develop continuous processes for solvent extraction of coal for the production of carbon products. These carbon products include materials used in metals smelting, especially in the aluminum and steel industries, as well as porous carbon structural material referred to as carbon foam and carbon fibers. During this reporting period, efforts have focused on the development of continuous processes for hydrogenation as well as continuous production of carbon foam and coke.
