Abstract
The proceedings document presentations made at the EPA/Industry Forum on Coal Liquefaction, October 23 and 24, 1979, in Chicago. The forum brought together representatives of government and industry with the goal of sharing information and increasing cooperation between the two groups. Following an overview of EPA's activities in the area of synthetic fuels, standards-setting procedures, activities, and plans relating to coal liquefaction were discussed for air emissions, solid wastes, and liquid effluents. EPA permit procedures were summarized for coal liquefaction plants. EPA's research and development activities in coal liquefaction were described, as were plans and activities of EPA's Industrial Environmental Research Laboratory (RTP) in coal liquefaction. State government participation in coal liquefaction development was discussed for Kentucky and Illinois. Industry plans in the area of coal liquefaction were presented by representatives of several firms actively involved in development and use of the technology: Exxon Research and Engineering Co., Ralph M. Parsons Co., Hydrocarbon Research, Inc., Mobil Research and Development Corp., Texas Eastern Corp., and Fluor Corp.
