Scaling of the Technology for Producing C19+ Hydrocarbons in Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis: Transition from Laboratory Research to Pilot Testing

This paper examines the scaling of a technology for the selective synthesis of high-molecular-weight C19+ hydrocarbons (synthetic waxes) from CO and H2 in the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) process over a cobalt-aluminum-silica catalyst. Scaling was performed using a 6-meter tubular reactor at a pilot plant using natu...
