A Fischer-Tropsch synthesis process (10) includes feeding gaseous reactants (20) including at least CO, H2 and C02 into a reactor (14) holding an iron-based catalyst. The H2 and CO are fed in a H2:CO molar ratio of at least 2:1 and the C02 and CO are fed in a C02:CO molar ratio of at least 0.5:1. The reactor (14) is controlled at an operating temperature in the range from about 260° C. to about 300° C. A liquid product (22) and a gaseous product (24) including hydrocarbons, CO, H2, water and C02 are withdrawn from the reactor (14). |
