Abstract

Coal can certainly be made into a drop-in diesel—a fuel that can be burned in existing diesel engines. It has been done in South Africa for over 50 years by Sasol, where coal is converted into liquid fuel (CTL). Also, China’s Shenhua Group recently built the first commercial Direct Coal Liquefaction plant, though the EROI may be low or negative (Kong et al. 2015). Today, South Africa and China are the only nations with commercial CTL plants.
