Researchers at Tomsk Polytechnic University have developed new highly efficient catalysts for synthesis gas processing using ...
A fundamental discovery about the Fischer Tropsch process, a catalytic reaction used in industry to convert coal, natural gas or biomass to liquid fuels, could someday allow for more efficient fuel ...
In 1925, Professor Franz Fischer, founding director of the Kaiser-Wilhelm Institute of Coal Research in Mülheim an der Ruhr, and his head of department, Dr Hans Tropsch, applied for a patent ...
First the feedstock methane is broken down by reacting it with oxygen in the form of steam or air to produce a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen. In the second phase this syngas is fed to ...
Incorporating gas heated reforming (GHR) technology into autothermal reforming (ATR)-based GTL processes offers combined benefits of significantly higher carbon efficiency and lower capital cost. An ...
Carbon recycling company LanzaTech and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) producer LanzaJet have launched an alternative to using costly Fischer-Tropsch technology to convert waste into liquid fuels. The ...
