1. A system for producing hydrocarbon compounds, comprising
a) a reforming unit configured to provide a syngas when supplied with a methane containing feedstock; b) a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis unit configured to receive syngas provided by the reforming unit and configured to provide: i) a cracker feed comprising one or more liquid hydrocarbons, and ii) thermal energy; c) a hydrocarbon cracking unit, configured to receive the cracker feed of one or more liquid hydrocarbons from the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis unit and to provide a desirable hydrocarbon product and carbon dioxide; and d) a carbon dioxide capture unit configured to capture at least a portion of the carbon dioxide provided by the hydrocarbon cracking unit; wherein at least a portion of the thermal energy provided by the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis unit is transferred to the carbon dioxide capture unit, and wherein at least a portion of the carbon dioxide by product gas provided by the carbon dioxide capture unit is supplied to the reforming unit as a reforming agent. |
