With an increase in energy consumption globally, Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis is a good alternative for producing fuels and chemicals from coal, natural gas or biomass. Among them, coal to liquids has been put into production countries that have large reserves. In this process, Fe-based catalysts are commonly used due their earth abundance, comparatively wide operation range ready availabilit...

The aviation industry contributes to more than 2% of global human-induced CO2-emissions, and it is expected increase 3% by 2050 as demand for grows. As the still dependent on conventional jet fuel, an essential component a carbon-neutral growth low-carbon, sustainable fuels, example alternative drop-in fuels with biobased components. An optimization model was developed case Sweden examine impac...

The Fischer–Tropsch (FT) synthesis is traditionally associated with fossil fuel consumption, but recently this technology has emerged as a keystone that enables the conversion of captured CO2 sustainable hydrogen to energy-dense fuels and chemicals for sectors which are challenging be electrified. Iron-based FT catalysts promoted alkali transition metals improve reducibility, activity, selectiv...

This perspective offers an overview of using nanomaterials for understanding cobalt catalysed Fischer-Tropsch chemistry. Nanomaterials now afford unprecedented control of size, shape and structure at the nanometre scale. This makes them invaluable tools for studying heterogeneous catalysis. The Fischer-Tropsch reaction, especially using cobalt based catalysts, is a linchpin in many processes fo...

The influence of copper promoters and reaction conditions on the formation of alcohols byproducts of a common Fischer-Tropsch synthesis used iron-based catalysts were investigated. A good compromise of 28%Cu/FeKLaSiO2 can lead to the optimization of an improved Fischer-Tropsch catalyst. The product distribution shifts towards hydrocarbons with increasing the reaction temperature, while pressure...

Support vector regression (SVR) is a learning method based on the support vector machine (SVM) that can be used for curve fitting and function estimation. In this paper, the ability of the nu-SVR to predict the catalytic activity of the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) reaction is evaluated and the result is compared with two other prediction techniques including: multilayer perceptron (MLP) and subtractiv...

fischer-tropsch synthesis is a promising route for production of light olefins via co hydrogenation over transition metals. co is one of the most active metals for fischer-tropsch synthesis. some different variables such as preparation parameters and operational factors can strongly affect the selectivity of fischer-tropsch synthesis toward the special products. in the case of preparation varia...

Advanced biofuels are produced by upgrading the syncrude from biomass gasification and subsequent Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis. The technology is termed to liquid process (BtL) can be categorized into conventional BtL novel processes. utilizes a water gas shift reaction, while an external energy source meet H 2 demand in FT Six different routes, two based on four with solid oxide electrolyzer...

Over the coming years, world is projected to witness an upsurge in “drop-in” aviation biofuel production as part of renewable energy and bioeconomy developments. This paper presents a comprehensive review current status biojet fuel development uptake global commercial industry, including state-of-the-art certified technologies (i.e. Fischer-Tropsch (FT); hydroprocessed esters fatty acids (HEFA)...

Fisher-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) is a promising method to make alternative hydrocarbons from biomass or other resources. Upgrading the primary FTS products of considerable interest. Cracking FT wax economically attractive produce light olefins. Herein, effects zeolite type, Si/Al ratio ZSM-5, and reaction condition on catalytic cracking were investigated. It was found that pore structure acid pro...
