Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Study of Decomposition Processes Applicable to Certain Products of Coal Carbonization, Vol. 27: Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry in the Graduate School of the University of Illinois, 1921 The extensive experimental work carried on in these laboratories on the coking of Illinois, Eastern bituminous, Utah. Canadian and many other coals has demonstrated the possibility of increasing the yield of tar oils approximately one hundred-fold, depending upon the variety of coal used in the low-temperature carbonizing process. The distillate obtained in this manner contains a large quantity of low-boiling, aromatic oils, some of which under normal commercial conditions have a limited application in the industries. For instance, xylene could be obtained in large quantities even under present conditions, if its industrial demand were such as to warrant the expense of recovery and purifying. This hydrocarbon, having a boiling range from 137 to 141 deg. C. has too low a vapor pressure to be an efficient motor fuel, but if by pyrogenic decomposition it can be converted into benzene, which boils at 80 deg. C. its value as a motor fuel is greatly increased. Xylene can also be decomposed in such a manner as to form higher boiling compounds, many being solids at ordinary temperatures.
