摘要 |
The invention relates to a novel method for the hydrogenolysis of macromolecular fossil raw materials and macromolecular synthetic materials, in particular of hard coal, using pressurized hydrogen in the presence of borane-catalysts. Active catalysts are organoborane-halogen compounds and halogenohydroboranes R2BX and RBX2 (R = H, organyl; X = F, Cl, Br, I), which are applied either in substance, or are produced <i>in situ</i> from borane compounds R3B or metal borates M<+>[R4B]<-> (R = H, organyl) and suitable halogenation reagents under the reaction conditions. Unlike the coal hydroliquefaction method according to Bergius, the inventive method also enables high-rank coalification hard coals such as steam coals, low-volatile bituminous coals, semi-anthracites and anthracites to be reacted using hydrogen.
