We will construct 100 BPD to 500 BPD coal to oil plants that will also convert the CO2 to methanol John M Kocol is the first person in the coal to oil (liquids) industry to call for making converting coal to oil (CoalToOil) a clean process by calling on coal, oil and gas companies to take the enormous amounts of CO2 that coal to oil creates, and then to convert the CO2 to methanol.

Indirect coal-to-liquids (ICTL) technology consists of a two-step process using coal as a feedstock that is first gasified to produce synthesis gas (CO+H 2) The syngas is then converted into hydrocarbon compounds and other products via Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) synthesis 1-3 The liquid fuels produced through ICTL are environmentally friendly.

The rising costs of fuel, combined with the fact that the US has larger reserves of coal than it does oil, have prompted an upsurge of interest in the possibility of generating liquid fuels (such as gasoline and diesel) from coal in a process referred to as "coal-to-liquids (CTL)" Coal is heavily used for electricity generation, but transportation currently relies almost entirely on oil.

In the coal-to-liquids (CTL) process, the coal is first converted to syngas It then undergoes the water-gas shift (WGS) reaction, which removes some of the carbon monoxide (CO) from the syngas by converting it to CO 2, and this is followed by Fischer-Tropsch (FT) to create the liquid fuels.
