STOTLER MICHAEL CALDERON CLARENCE A.JOHN$ON ATTORNEY LOW SULFUR FUEL OIL FROM COAL BACKGROUND The increase in government concern regarding air pollution, especially with regard to sulfur emission into the atmosphere, has resulted in legislative action which could eliminate the use of some of our conventional coals in the utilities market. This is particularly true for coals such as Pittsburgh No. 8 which contains about 4 percent sulfur, as well as Illinois No. 6. A process which can economically convert coal to a fuel which will meet anticipated air pollution regulations is of prime economic interest.
While it is known that such coals can be processed to produce gasoline boiling range materials, together with some gas and some heavier boiling products, it has been found that the high consumption of hydrogen and catalyst, and relatively low coal throughput per volume of reactor, is not economical unless gasoline is the principal product made.
Hydrogenation of coal depends on many factors including the characteristics of the coal as to oxygen, ash, and volatile content. Other factors include those controllable reaction conditions of temperature, pressure, throughput, and catalyst. Equally as a controlling factor is the quality of the end product.
Normally, the hydrogenation 'of coal has proceeded to the ultimate production of gasoline or similar high quality fuels. In such case, the use of hydrogen, a relatively expensive commodity has directed the research into conditions of high conversion, usually requiring two or more reaction stages and separation equipment.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This invention is primarily adapted to make an inexpensive, low cost, fuel substitute of low gravity which may be used either as ground-up solids or as a liquid if maintained at a temperature above the melting point. The low sulfur characteristic is especially beneficial for reduction of pollution.
DRAWING The drawing is a schematic view of a reactor and auxiliary equipment for a coal hydrogenation process.
DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Coal at 10, appropriately ground at 12 (and not necessarily dried), is mixed at 14 with recycle slurry oil 16 to form a coaloil slurry. This slurry is passed by line 18 through heater 20 into the lower part of reactor 22. Hydrogen is added at 24. Liquid oil and hydrogen pass upwardly through a bed of catalyst or activated alumina at sufficient velocity to maintain an ebullated bed of catalyst or inert solids such as disclosed in the Schuman U.S. Pat. No. 3,281,393.
A gaseous phase is removed overhead at 26 and a liquid stream is removed at 28. The liquid stream is in part recycled through pump 30 to maintain the desired liquid velocity and a net liquid stream is removed at 32.
Preferably the coal is initially ground to all pass 20 mesh and not more than about percent passing 325 mesh (Tyler). The slurry at 18 is a pumpable slurry with at least equal parts of oil and coal but, if for operating reasons, it is desirable to recycle an additional amount of slurry oil, slurries of one part coal and up to 10 parts oil may be used.
A temperature of 800900 F. preferably about 850 F. and a hydrogen partial pressure of 800-2500 p.s.i. and preferably about 1,890 p.s.i. is maintained in the reactor.
The vapors 26 leaving the upper part of the reactor are cooled at 34. Condensed light ends are separated in drum 36 and removed at 42. Vapors leaving drum 36 at 40 are cooled in exchanger 64 and scrubbed with an absorber oil in column 63 to remove light hydrocarbon gases at 65 and hydrogen leaving at 38 is recycled. The recycle hydrogen stream 38 plus makeup hydrogen at 44 also passes through heat exchanger 34, through heater 67 and becomes the hydrogen feed line 24.
The liquid leaving the reactor at 32 is separated in one or more fractionation columns 50 into a light ends stream 52, a middle distillate at 53, a heavy gas oil at 54 and a heavy ends at 56.
The heavy ends at 56 contain a substantial amount of solids which are sent to a filter 58. The filter cake is recovered at 60. The filter cake comprises a char and ash product and may contain up to 20 percent of oil which can be recovered thermally. A centrifuge could also be used.
The filtrate leaving filter 58 provides the slurry oil recycle stream 16 and the fuel oil product, 62.
The low sulfur fuel oil product 62 will have an API gravity of about l4 with a B.t.u. value in excess of 16,600 BTUs per pound. Normally this product has a boiling point not less than 400 F. and must be kept hot in order to permit pumpability or distillates can be removed to give a product boiling at 900 F. and higher.
Alternatively, the fuel oil product can be cooled, solidified and ground and used as a solid combustible fuel low in ash and sulfur, especially when free of distillates.
The reactor 22 may be operated under varying conditions depending upon the maximum sulfur desired in the fuel oil product. The following table illustrates experimental results from the operations. Approximately three barrels of fuel oil with a sulfur content of less than 0.5 weight percent sulfur and 0.56 barrels of naphtha have been produced per ton of Illinois N o. 6 coal.
Treatment of coal from the Pittsburgh No. 8 seam has yielded 3.48 barrels of fuel oil per ton and 0.21 barrels per ton of naphtha. In this case the fuel oil product contained approximately 1 percent sulfur.
The versatility of the reactor is indicated in the table below in which, in one case, 93 pounds of Illinois No. 6 coal per hour per cubic foot was the coal feed rate utilizing a cobalt molybdate on alumina catalyst. In such case the hydrogen consumption was approximately 3.75 s.c.f./lb.
The Pittsburgh No. 8 coal was operated at a throughput rate of 187 pounds of coal per hour per cubic foot with activated alumina and only 2 s.c.f./lb. of hydrogen was consumed.

Feed rate 75-200 |bs./hr.lcu.ft. of reactor space When the fuel oil recovered boils at 400 F. plus it is preferably maintained as a liquid fuei although it can be used as a solid fuel. Where the fuel oil recovered is free of distillates, it is preferable that the remaining fuel oil boil at 900 F. plus. This 900 F. plus fuel oil is suitable for use as a liquid fuel although it is preferably allowed to cool and used as a solid fuel.
Ammonia and hydrogen sulfide produced in the coal hydrogenation step are recovered and the hydrogen sulfide may be converted to elemental sulfur by the Claus process providing ammonia and sulfur as byproducts.
