The interest in Gas-to-Liquid technology (GTL) is growing worldwide because it involves a two-step indirect conversion of natural gas to higher hydrocarbons ranging from Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) paraffin wax. GTL makes possible obtain clean diesel, naphtha, lubes, olefins, and other industrially important organics gas. This article brief review discussing the state-of-the-art GTL, includin...

Magnetic, Mössbauer, and I.R. studies of nanosize particles of Fe and Co species dispersed in a cage of aluminosilicates structure, in relation to syngas (CO+H2) Fischer Tropsch conversion. The difference in the catalytic activity of such species have shown dependancy on their degree of dispersion. The carbonyl impregnation gave ultra-fine Super Paramagnetic Fe3O4, whereas the nitrate impregnat...

Моделирование процесса синтеза Фишера-Тропша является довольно сложным. Существует большое разнообразие кинетических моделей, которые были разработаны для описания реакции Фишера-Тропша. В данной статье приводится математическая модель процесса, описывающая начальный период расходования СО и образования основных продуктов в присутствии железо-рутений содержащего катализатора на основе сверхсшит...

The design and optimization of a natural gas to hydrocarbon liquids (GTL) process is considered, mainly from the view of maximizing the variable income during operation. Autothermal reforming (ATR) is used for synthesis gas production. The kinetic model for Fischer Tropsch (FT) reactions is the one given by Iglesia et al. for a cobalt-based FT reactor. For the product distribution, three altern...
