Abstract
The NEDOL process produced coal liquefaction residue (CLR) in about 30% yield. The amount of waste tire is increasing every year. In this study, the hydrogenolysis reaction of CLR (1t/d PSU) with pulverized waste tire was carried out by using tetralin. Compared with the result from each reaction of CLR or tire alone, the synergistic effects to upgrading, such as the increase of the yield of volatile products and the decrease of n-hexane insoluble-acetone soluble materials, were observed.
