Naphthalene is the simplest polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, and can be used as a precursor to many other complex aromatics. Current industrial processes remove it from coal tar or petroleum during the refining and distillation steps. The process reported here is much greener, albeit on a much smaller scale.
It is a thin, colourless, highly flammable liquid with a characteristic smell. It is a good motor fuel solvent as well as being a feedstock for other benzene derivatives used in dye, insecticides and plastics production. At a later stage in the distillation process, a heavy coal tar solvent naphtha and a naphthalene fraction are produced.
Coal tar naphthalene oil fraction (CTNOF) is typically obtained as a byproduct of the coking process in steel production. When coal is subjected to high temperatures in the absence of air (coking), it undergoes thermal decomposition, yielding various byproducts including coal tar [].This tar can be further processed to extract different fractions, one of which is naphthalene oil [2, 3].
Naphthalene was first isolated from coal tar in 1819 by Alexander Garden; it represents about 10% of this complex mixture of aromatics. The industrial importance of naphthalene dates from the latter half of the last century, owing mainly to the ease with which it can be converted into sulfonic acids and thence also to the naphthols, for use as dyestuffs intermediates.

PRODUCTION Naphthalene may be produced from either coal tar or petroleum. Distillation and fractionation of coal tar is the most common production process. The middle fraction (containing most of the naphthalene) is cooled, crystallizing the naphthalene. The crude naphthalene may be refined by distillation, washing, and

Most naphthalene is derived from coal tar. From the 1960s until the 1990s, significant amounts of naphthalene were also produced from heavy petroleum fractions during petroleum refining, but presentday production is mainly from coal tar. Approximately tons are produced annually. Naphthalene is the most abundant single component of coal tar.

Naphthalene, acenaphthene and luorene are wellknown organic chemicals that are useful as intermediates in the production of organic acids, dyes and insecticides. Previously acenaphthene and iluorene have been recovered from coal tar distillates or prepared by synthetic methods.
Abstract In this study, the steam reforming of naphthalene and pyrene as heavy tar model compounds was investigated experimentally in a horizontal tube reactor and theoretically using the CHEMKIN simulation. The experimental results revealed that the reactivity of naphthalene was higher than that of pyrene in the presence of steam. The carbon content converted to soot is a little more than ...
The company derives naphthalene from coal tar at production plants in North America, Europe, Australia, and China. NIPPON STEEL SUMITOMO METAL CORPORATION.
But because that its relative density is higher than and asphaltene content is close to 50% [6] (mass fraction), hightemperature coal tar is not suitable for the production of aerospace fuel. Medium and low temperature coal tar is a liquid product with high condensation degree obtained by pyrolysis of lowrank coal at 600 to 800°C.
The naphthalene content in the commercial product derived from coal tar by the proposed method is wt %. The yield of naphthalene is wt %. The energy consumption in the basic three ...
Coal tar is an important raw material for the production of valuable aromatic compounds [].It has more than 500 components, most of which are aromatic hydrocarbons, including benzene, toluene, xylene, anthracene, naphthalene, and phenanthrene [4, 5].These are precursors for the synthesis of products such as dyes, drugs, explosives, scents, preservatives, synthetic tars, paints, and pigments.
High temperature coal tar (HTCT) is a coproduct of the coking process, whose objective is the production of metallurgical coke for use in the production of pig iron in blast furnaces. According to FernándezGarcía et al. (2017), HTCT is obtained with a yield of about 35 wt% in coking.
1. Introduction. With the development of coal utilization technologies such as gasification, liquefaction, carbonization, and coking, a large number of coal tar or coal tar byproducts have been produced, among which carbonization and liquefaction are the processes with coal tar as the main product. 1,2 Although medium and lowtemperature coal tars have higher contents of aliphatic ...

Coal Tar. L. Roberts, in Encyclopedia of Toxicology (Third Edition), 2014 Background (Significance/History) Coal tar is a complex hydrocarbon mixture produced by thermal destruction (pyrolysis) of coal, typically a dark viscous liquid or semisolid with a smoky or naphthenic odor. The composition of coal tar will be influenced by the process used for pyrolytic distillation as well as by the ...
The gasification process was started by igniting a coal seam using a pyrotechnic charge. The ignition occurred with low oxygen flow rate (2 Nm 3 /h) supplied into the reactor inlet. After ignition of the coal, the oxygen flow rate was increased to 10 Nm 3 /h. The process initiation was considered complete when the concentration of oxygen in the process gas was below 1%.
