Recommendations are made in Section 8.0 for systematic refining studies on two-stage coal liquids, paying special attention to the cut points of various coal liquid fractions, including an oxygen-rich fraction (350-450°F) for phenolics extraction. Engine tests for coal-derived gasoline and diesel fuel products are suggested. Economic studies on coal-liquid refining schemes, product slates, and refining process viabilities are strongly recommended. Further studies on physical and thermodynamic properties to develop specific correlations for coal liquids are highly justified.
