HOUSTON, Nov. 29 -- Syntroleum Corp., Tulsa, plans to test its propriety Fischer-Tropsch catalyst with coal-derived synthesis gas at a coal gasification plant.

The 6-month test, scheduled to start during January, is intended to demonstrate that Syntroleum's gas-to-liquids process also is applicable to coal-to-liquids processing, the company said.
