The Characteristics of Australian Coals and Their Implications in Coal Liquefaction... 

Location, Geology and General Characteristics of Australian Coals... 

The first part of this paper has shown that Australian black and brown coals differ significantly in a number of respects from coals of similar ranks from North America and elsewhere in the northern hemisphere. The rest of the paper than proceeded to indicate the progress being made to determine how the characteristics of Australian coals influence their conversion to volatile and liquid products during pyrolysis and hydrogenation. 

From the above characteristics it will be scon, as Dr. Pereira lm remarked, that the Australian gum bears more resemblance to that of the cherry-tree than that of the acaoia. 

Another age-based segment is that referred to as the baby boomers. The term refers specifically to the cohort of people bom between 1945 and 1966 (Muller Cleaver, 2000). The expression baby boomers applies best to the countries of Canada, the United States of America, Australia and New Zealand where economic conditions after the Second World War were sound and families were encouraged. By way of contrast, war-affected countries in Europe and Asia and developing countries in other continents did not produce the same conditions for family life and did not experience such high birth rates. Nevertheless European and Japanese travellers, in particular, share some of the characteristics outlined in North American and Australian studies (You O Leary, 1999).

Material of as yet unproven peptide nature was isolated from instant coffee powders by an Australian group prompted by the identification of opioid-active peptides in casein and gluten hydrolysates, and morphine in milk.<136,137) A product that bound to rat brain homogenates was found with characteristics of opioid antagonists (its binding ED50 value was little changed in the presence of Na+) and with an activity at 1.2 mg/ml equivalent to that of naloxone at 3.4nM(137)...

World annual production of natural diamonds, the cubic form of carbon, is about 110 million carats (1 carat = 200 mg). Almost all is derived from kimberlite or its weathered remnants, but Australian production is from the Argyle mine, at which the host rock is lamproite. Kimberlites are olivine- and volatUe-rich potassic ultrabasic rocks of variable geological age that typically form near-vertical carrot-shaped pipes intmded into Archean cratons. The volatile-rich component is predominantly CO2 in the carbonate minerals calcite and dolomite, and the texture is characteristically inequigranular, with large grains (macrocrysts), usually of olivine [Mg2Si04], in a fine-grained, olivine-rich matrix. 

Samples. Brown coal lithotype samples were taken from a bore core from the Flynn field in the Loy Yang region of the Latrobe Valley, Victoria, Australia. The brown coal deposits in this area are believed to be Miocene to Eocene in age. All five lithotype samples were taken at depths between 93 and 100.5 m below the surface in a 120-m core and were provided by the SECV. The black coal sample was from the Upper Hunter region (Permian) of New South Wales (Sydney Basin), Australia, and had a carbon content of 81.3%, dry, ash-free basis (DAF). This sample was provided by the Australian Coal Industry Research Laboratories Ltd. (ACIRL). The characteristics of these samples are set out in Table II.
