Coal liquefaction is a process of converting coal into liquid hydrocarbons: liquid fuels and petrochemicals.This process is often known as "Coal to X", where X can be many different hydrocarbon-based products. However, the most common process chain is "Coal to Liquid Fuels" (CTL).

Coal benefits from a well-established global market, with a large number of suppliers. The production of liquid fuels from coal will not require vast land resources or cause competition with food production. The development of a coal to liquids (CTL) industry can serve to hedge against oil-related energy security risks. Using domestic coal

This is dependent on coal rank, with higher rank coals containing less hydrogen, oxygen & nitrogen, until 95% purity of carbon is achieved at Anthracite rank & above The chemical content and physical parameters of the coal supply for gasification, prior to the FT processing, will influence the design & operation of the CTL facility
