Process Technology for Tunable Fischer Tropsch Synthesis Towards Middle Distillate Fuel Fractions

Abstract

Objectives: Develop Fischer Tropsch technologies that target the production of TP SBF through process, catalyst, and reactor improvements. Investigate Supercritical Fischer Tropsch Synthesis (SC-FTS) process performance as related to key reaction conditions. Develop Fe catalysts that operate over a wider range of process conditions in Supercritical Fischer Tropsch Synthesis (SC-FTS). Intergrate Iron-based SC-FTS into multiple bed reactor system that incorporates oligomerization and cracking/isomerization to improve desire product selectivity and quality.
