ACETYLENE ENHANCED CONVERSION OF SYNGAS TO FISCHER-TROPSCH HYDROCARBON PRODUCTS

摘要

A method for converting syngas to Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) hydrocarbon products, the method comprising:
(a) providing synthesis gas to a F-T reactor;
(b) providing acetylene to the F-T reactor, the molar ratio of the acetylene to synthesis gas being at least 0.01;
(c) reacting the synthesis gas and acetylene under suitable reaction conditions, in the presence of a catalyst, to produce F-T hydrocarbon products;
and
(d) recovering the F-T hydrocarbon products.
