Converting synthesis gas into liquid hydrocarbons involves using perfectly mixed reactors in series containing catalyst liquid suspension, and obtaining liquid product free from catalytic suspension

摘要

Perfectly mixed reactors containing a catalytic suspension in the liquid phase, are in series. Last reactor is fed by gaseous fraction(s) from outlet of other reactor(s). Reactor(s) is fed by a flow of separated catalytic suspension, directly from other reactor such that the liquid product is free of catalyst. A catalytic suspension high in catalyst is recycled. Synthesis gas is converted into liquid hydrocarbons.
