This invention relates to a method for liquefying coal using iron ore as a catalyst. A method of liquefying coal into liquefied hydrocarbons by thermally decomposing coal under hydrogenated conditions is known. In order to liquefy coal using this method, it is necessary to carry out the pyrolysis reaction at high temperature and pressure, and to add a large amount of hydrogen. Therefore, in order to ease the reaction conditions as described above, catalysts are used in the thermal decomposition. It is desired that this catalyst has liquefaction activity, is inexpensive, and can be obtained in large quantities. However, the catalyst used in the H-Coal method, for example, is Co-Mo based and expensive, which poses an economical problem. It is also known that iron ore is used as a catalyst in the Fe 2 O 3 system, but iron ore is cheap and can be supplied in large quantities, but on the other hand, it has been thought that the liquefaction activity is low. Therefore, in order to increase the liquefaction activity, sulfur compounds are added as auxiliary catalysts, but if a large amount of sulfur compounds is used, the sulfur content will be included in the liquefied oil, reducing the quality of the liquefied oil. There was a problem. Therefore, the present inventors investigated the conditions for laterite ore in iron ore, which can be supplied in large quantities at low cost, to be active as a catalyst for coal liquefaction. As a result, Al 2 O 3 /SiO 2 in the components of laterite ore
The ratio, the amount of NiO, and the specific surface area of the laterite ore greatly affect the activity as a catalyst for coal liquefaction.If the above conditions are selected within a specific range, the catalyst will have excellent activity, and this will result in a coal liquefaction catalyst. It was discovered that liquefaction can be carried out efficiently. The present invention has been made based on the above findings, and is a coal liquefaction method in which hydrogen is added to coal under high temperature and high pressure, and the coal is liquefied by thermal decomposition in the presence of a catalyst. NiO from 0.1
It is characterized in that laterite ore containing 3.0% by weight, an Al 2 O 3 /SiO 2 ratio of 0.5 to 3.0, and a specific surface area of 50 to 100 m 2 /g is used as the catalyst for the thermal decomposition. It is something. In this invention, the reason why the conditions for the laterite ore used as a catalyst are limited as described above is as follows. NiO acts as a catalyst, showing activity in the hydrogenation reaction of aromatic compounds. However, if the content is less than 0.1% by weight, the desired effects described above cannot be obtained. Meanwhile, the content of NiO is 3.0% by weight
Even if it exceeds 100%, the above-mentioned effect will not be significantly improved, and on the contrary, it will be evaluated as nickelite, resulting in the problem of increased cost. Therefore, the content of NiO was limited within the range of 0.1 to 3.0% by weight. Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 has the effect of exhibiting catalytic activity as an acid. However, if the Al 2 O 3 /SiO 2 ratio is less than 0.5, the desired effect described above cannot be obtained. On the other hand, even if the Al 2 O 3 /SiO 2 ratio exceeds 3.0, no particular improvement in the above-mentioned effects appears; on the contrary, alumina changes into a compound with metals and a spinel structure, and its activity decreases. A problem arises. Therefore, Al 2 O 3 /
The SiO2 ratio was limited to a range of 0.5 to 3.0. The specific surface area is an important condition for physically increasing the activity of laterite ore as a catalyst.
If the specific surface area is less than 50 m 2 /g, the desired activity cannot be obtained. On the other hand, when the specific surface area exceeds 100m 2 /g,
As a result of the test, it was found that the liquefaction activity decreased.
Therefore, the specific surface area was limited to a range of 50 to 100 m 2 /g. Next, the present invention will be explained based on examples and comparative examples. Example 1 50 g of coal with a particle size of 60 mesh or less and properties shown in Table 1 was converted into sulfur using laterite ores A and B having the components and specific surface areas shown in Table 2 as catalysts.
A small amount of 0.5 g was mixed well with 100 g of creosote oil, and the mixture was charged into a shaking autoclave.
