Gas Treatment for the Control of Blue Mold Disease of Tobacco.
Recommends the use paradichlorbenzene gas for treatment of blue mold disease of tobacco, and provides instructions for using it.
High Sulfur Indiana V coal was solvent refined in a bench scale unit to determine operating conditions necessary to produce low ash product with less than 0.9 wt% S. Necessary background information was generated prior to recommending further processing of this coal at the Wilsonville SRC pilot plant. North Dakota lignite was processed in the same unit to determine its suitability for further study at the pilot plant level. Three sets of operating conditions utilizing three different mixtures of carbon monoxide and hydrogen were evaluated. On the basis of these results, further testing of lignite at Wilsonville was deferred. The report summarizes operability information and product distribution data, hydrogen, carbon monoxide and water consumption, as well as elemental analyses of products and product fractions.
