Abstract

Evidence is presented that a mixed metal catalyst system, which is predominantly iron-based with trace amounts of tin, displays a significant synergistic effect in the hydrogenation of Victorian brown coal, when compared with hydrogenation results using only iron- or tin-based catalysts of comparable metal concentrations to the mixed metal system.
