Abstract: The study investigated thermal carbonization of oil tar in comparison with tar carbonization over a Ni/Sibunit catalyst at 450–600°C. The addition of Ni/Sibunit to the tar slightly enhanced the yield of coke. However, various sulfur compounds released during tar carbonization interact with metallic nickel to form nickel sulfide, thus rapidly deactivating the catalyst in carbonization that occurs by the carbide-cycle mechanism. To suppress the deactivation of 8%Ni/Sibunit under the impact of sulfur compounds, we hydrocracked the tar sample prior to feeding it to the carbonization. The tar hydrocracking was carried out in a flow-type reactor with a fixed bed of sulfided Ni–Mo/Al2O3 catalyst in a hydrogen atmosphere (the other reaction conditions included 16.0 MPa, 420°C, LHSV 0.5 h–1, and a hydrogen/feed ratio of 2000 v/v). The hydrocracking appreciably reduced the content of sulfur and nitrogen in the liquid product. In the presence of 8%Ni/Sibunit, the carbonization of the liquid tar hydrocracking product enhanced the yield of coke compared to that in the thermal carbonization. The catalytic carbonization was found to change the carbon morphology. Specifically, in the 8%Ni/Sibunit addition case, carbon nanofibers 15–40 nm in diameter were detected. In addition to the carbon nanofibers, the formation of amorphous carbon sheets was observed.
