Catalytic conversion of biomass-derived synthesis gas to liquid fuels
Climate change is one of the biggest global threats of the 21st century. Fossil fuels constitute by far the most important energy source for transportation and the different governments are starting to take action to promote the use of cleaner fuels. Biomass-derived fuels are a promising alternative for diversifying fuel sources, reducing fossil fuel dependency and abating greenhouse gas emissi...
متن کاملRenewable Liquid Fuels
B ecoming independent of crude oil imports, mainly from the Middle East, is an urgent concern for many countries all over the world. In order to secure a sustainable energy supply, especially in the transportation sector, governments need to apply policies that promote the use of renewable energy technologies. The dependence on crude oil imports decreases as the production of total energy from ...

متن کاملModeling of Fischer–tropsch Synthesis Packed Bed Reactor for Producing Liquid Fuels from Natural Gas
A tubular pilot scale fixed-bed reactor for the Fischer–Tropsch Synthesis (FTS) was simulated to numerically demonstrate the conversion of synthesis gas (CO+H2) to higher hydrocarbons over an iron based catalyst. The reactor was a 3.1 cm diameter and 2.75 m length steel tube. The feed temperature were between 563583 K. Saturated water was employed to control the peak temperature within the cata...
متن کاملNano Sensor Networks for Tailored Operation of Highly Efficient Gas-To-Liquid Fuels Catalysts
Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, a major process for converting natural gas to liquid hydrocarbons (GTL) suffers from selectivity limitations. While GTL reactor produces highly useful hydrocarbons in the form of liquid fuels such as gasoline, it also produces low-grade hydrocarbons such as methane. Selectivity refers to the ratio of highly useful hydrocarbons to the total product output. The literatu...
