Various fractionalized solvents with different paraffinicities were adopted to maximize the efficiency of the quinoline insoluble (QI) extraction process for coal tar pitch. In addition, highly pressurized conditions combined with raised temperature (4 bar at 300 °C) were used to accelerate the reaction kinetics of the extraction process. The QI content of purified coal tar pitch was analyzed to be 0.1% at a process yield of up to 72% as a solvent with a K-factor of 10 and above was used. Purified coal tar pitch was then processed to form anisotropic coke using a lab-scale tube bombe reactor. The texture observed under a polarized light microscope showed an anisotropic flow domain, a unique morphological feature of needle coke. The additives and reaction conditions used in this study for QI extraction for coal tar pitch were found to be effective and feasible as preliminary processing in needle coke production.
