DCL is termed direct because the coal is transformed into liquid without first being gasified to form syngas (which can then in turn be transformed into liquid products). The latter twostep approach, the coal to syngas to liquids route is termed indirect coal liquefaction (ICL). Therefore, the DCL process is, in principle, the simpler and ...

WhatsApp: +86 18838072829Coal resources have been used to produce liquid transportation fuels by several process routes, collectively referred to as coal liquefaction or, more generally stated, as Coal to Liquids (CTL). Early records of coal conversion to liquid fuel date to 1913 and an extraction process developed by Friedrich Bergius in Germany [ 7 ].
WhatsApp: +86 18838072829Introduction Coaltoliquids (CTL) is a process of producing synthetic transportation fuels from coal, to replace or supplement conventional supplies of diesel oil and gasoline derived largely from imported oil. In the most commonly used CTL technology, coal is first gasified to produce synthesis gas (or syngas) which is subsequently converted ...
