Abstract
The behavior and fate of a zinc additive to lubricating oil in the co- liquefaction of waste lubricating oil and a bituminous coal have been investigated by means of X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectr oscopy. Although the zinc additive appears to remain largely unaltered during use as zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP), it is readily conve rted to solid zinc sulfide and effectively separated from the desired liquid hydrocarbon products during the coliquefaction process. It is a nticipated that similar behavior will be shown by most other environme ntally important elements.
