Abstract

Samples of Beypazarı, Elbistan
and Kangal were hydrogenated in a bomb reactor, in the presence of tetralin and
without catalyst, under 395°C temperature and 7MPa cold hydrogen pressure conditions
for 17 minutes. Conversion, liquid yield and preasphaltenes-asphaltenes-oil
distribution were determined by a standardized procedure. The Beypazarı sample
gave higher conversion (91 %) and liquid yield (64 %) in comparison with the
others, but the lightest liquid was derived from Elbistan sample. The
consistency of the experiment was verified by total mass and sulphur balances,
which gave closures around 100 %.
