The vacuumdried coal shows a similar H2consumption value as that of the coal dried in air for 2 h in thermal as well as catalytic runs. But during thermal liquefaction of the raw coal the HFconsumption is higher than that of the vacuum- and air-dried coal for 2 h. In the catalytic liquefaction of the raw coal in presence of solvents the H2ansumption is not much different from that of the vacuum- or air-dried coal for 2 h, but in the solvent-free catalytic run the H2-consumption is remarkably higher. These results may account for the beuer conversions in the case of lilw coal liquefaction compared to that of the vacuum- or airdried coal. Hydrogen-transfer from tetralin (Figure 4) increases (in the thermal liquefactions) with the extent of oxidation of coal. Vacuum-dried and the raw coal show a lower H-transfer compared to that of the airdried coal. In the catalytic runs the H-transfer from teualin is relatively lower than that in the corresponding thermal run and does not make any noticeable difference as the coal is dried at 100 "C in air up to 100 h. When the coal is dried ai 150 'C for 20 h the H-uansfer is slightly higher. The vacuumdried coal shows a lowest value for the H-transfer from d i n in the catalytic run. CONCLUSIONS The airdried coal at 100 OC for up to 20 h gave similar conversions as the vacuum-dried coal in the solvent- free thermal and catalytic liquefactions. In the presence of solveno, better conversions were obtained from the coal dried in air at 100 "C for 2 h compared to the vacuumdried coal. The extensive oxidation of coal decreased the coal conversions in thermal as well as caralytic runs. These resulu suggests that air-drying of coal to some extent may be beneficial for liquefaction. The raw coal gave the best conversions in the solvent-free runs. The improved conversion Seems to be due to the prescnce of water, which enhances the removal ofcarbony1 functionalities during liquefaction making coal network less rehctory for liquefaction.
