    The present-day methods of lignite utilization consist mainly in its combustion in power industry. Nevertheless, in lignite resource-abundant countries research works on more sustainable, less environmentally harmful and more efficient way of lignite utilization have been carried out for a number of years. The incentive lies in generally low lignite production cost when compared with hard coal. One of the possible trends in lignite processing is generation of liquid products - substitute for crude oil, applying the direct hydrogenation method. Lignite suitability for this kind of processing has been already proved in lab-scale, PDU-scale and pilot plant scale. In the paper the present-day research works on lignite (among the others Australian ones) direct hydrogenation are presented as well as the advantages and drawbacks of lignite as a raw material for liquid fuels production. It is concluded that in the national circumstances lignite should be considered a potential raw material for hydrogenation process.
