A method for producing an ashless coal includes an extraction step, a separation step and an ashless coal acquirement step. In the extraction step, a slurry obtained by mixing a coal with a solvent is heated and thereby a solvent-soluble component of the coal is extracted. In the separation step, the slurry is separated into a solution of the solvent-soluble component of the coal and a solid content-concentrated liquid. In the ashless coal acquirement step, an ashless coal is obtained by evaporating and separating the solvent from the solution. The solvent is a mixture of a dissolution medium and a coal extraction accelerator added thereto. The solvent contains a bicyclic aromatic compound that is liquid at ordinary temperature. The coal extraction accelerator containing no nitrogen has two benzene rings and has at least one cyclic structure having no double bond.

A coal mixture is provided that maintains a high level of coke strength after carbonization, even where coal having an excessively large permeation distance is used in a large amount. The coal mixture includes large-permeation-distance coal and permeation-distance-decreasing coal. The permeation-distance-decreasing coal has a mean maximum vitrinite reflectance Ro of 1.25% or more and a total inert amount TI of 30 vol. % or less. The blending ratio of the permeation-distance-decreasing coal in the coal mixture is in a range derived by multiplying the blending ratio of the large-permeation-distance coal by 0.25 or more and 3.0 or less.

A premium “fuel-grade” petroleum coke is produced by modifying petroleum coking technology. Coking process parameters are controlled to consistently produce petroleum coke within a predetermined range for volatile combustible material (VCM) content. The invention includes a process of producing a coke fuel, the method comprising steps: (a) obtaining a coke precursor material derived from crude oil and having a volatile organic component; and (b) subjecting the coke precursor material to a thermal cracking process for sufficient time and at sufficient temperature and under sufficient pressure so as to produce a coke product having volatile combustible materials (VCMs) present in an amount in the range of from about 13% to about 50% by weight. Most preferably, the volatile combustible materials in the coke product typically may be in the range of from about 15% to about 30% by weight. The present invention also provides methods for (1) altering the coke crystalline structure, (2) improving the quality of the coke VCM, and (3) reducing the concentration of coke contaminants. Fuels made from the inventive coke product and methods of producing energy through the combustion of such fuels are also included. Finally, novel environmental control techniques are developed to take optimal advantage of the unique characteristics of this upgraded petroleum coke.

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for coal liquefaction and obtaining a mesophase pitch. A method of obtaining a quinoline insoluble-free and ash-free mesophase pitch may include exposing a coal to a hydrogenated vegetable oil in the presence of a coal-derived solvent to form a slurry, elevating the temperature of the slurry to facilitate liquefying the coal and liberating a volatile matter, separating the insoluble components from the slurry to obtain a de-ashed coal extract that is quinoline insoluble-free, and distilling the coal extract under vacuum to obtain a mesophase pitch with a softening point in the range of 25 degrees Celsius to 160 degrees Celsius, wherein the mesophase pitch can be coked to obtain an anisotropic coke. A quinoline insoluble-free and ash-free pitch may be obtained by the method.

The present disclosure provides methods and systems of a coated coker. An apparatus for coking includes a coated coking drum that receives a pitch material, wherein the coking drum is coated with a coating comprising at least one of a chromium, an aluminum, a nickel, or an alloy thereof, a heater that heats the pitch material to a coking temperature, and a flash vessel that condenses a liberated volatile matter, wherein a coke formed in the apparatus is readily removable. A coated Archimedes screw or coated plunger may be used with the coker, both of which can remove coke from the coking drum via force of their movement inside the coking drum.
