Kinetics and Mechanism of Catalytic Hydroprocessing of Components of Coal-Derived Liquids. Sixteenth Quarterly Report, February 16, 1983-May 15, 1983.

Description: A new method of structural analysis is applied to a group of hydroliquefied coal samples. The method uses elemental analysis and NMR data to estimate the concentrations of functional groups in the samples. The samples include oil and asphaltene fractions obtained in a series of hydroliquefaction experiments, and a set of 9 fractions separated from a coal-derived oil. The structural characterization of these samples demonstrates that estimates of functional group concentrations can be used to pr… more

Social Security and the Federal Budget: What Does Social Security's Being "Off Budget" Mean?

Description: As a result of a series of laws enacted in 1983, 1985 and 1990, Social Security is considered to be “off-budget” for federal budget purposes. While the meaning of this might seem obvious — that Social Security is not to be considered as part of the federal budget — many people are perplexed by the continued use of aggregate budget figures that include Social Security’s receipts and expenditures.
