Simple low-pressure fischer-tropsch process

摘要

A process for combing carbon monoxide and hydrogen to form liquid fuels such as diesels, and/or waxes, in a single pass fixed bed reactor, at an operation pressure less than 200 psig. The reactor uses a catalyst with a metallic cobalt loading greater than 5% by weight and a rhenium loading of less than 2% by weight, on an alumina support.
