Coprocessing has technical and economic advantages over coal liquefaction. The capital and operating costs associated with the solvent recycle loop are eliminated by replacing the product recycle stream with a fresh stream of petroleum residue or heavy oil. This also results in more efficient utilization of the reactor volume because both the coal and the carrier solvent are upgraded and contribute to the liquid product. 1, record 2, English, - solvent%20recycle%20loop

L'Extraction par Solvant. Le charbon est mélangé à un solvant capable de lui céder des atomes d'hydrogène lorsque l'ensemble est chauffé et pressurisé. Le solvant peut lui-même être ou non hydrogéné. C'est en général un distillat de poids moyen qui est recyclé et hydrogéné en présence d'un catalyseur métallique. [Source : revue «Sciences et Techniques», n° 63, décembre 79 - janvier 80, p. 53.

Pétrole et essence synthétiques. [...] Utilisation et rôle des solvants. Rôle très important dans les différents procédés de liquéfaction du charbon. [...] Intérêt du procédé [Fisher-Tropsch, de liquéfaction indirecte du charbon]. Les transformations s'effectuent à une pression voisine de la pression atmosphérique. Ce qui permet de réduire les investissements. Mais il faut augmenter les dimensions des installations (volumes gazeux plus grands que ceux des procédés sous pression). 2, record 3, French, - volume%20gazeux%20%C3%A0%20l%27int%C3%A9rieur%20du%20r%C3%A9acteur%20de%20dissolution
