<p>A carbon to liquids system is provided. The carbon to liquids system includes a source of syngas (202), a vessel configured to shift the syngas t o increase an H2/CO ratio of the syngas, the vessel coupled in flow communication downstream of the source of syngas, a source of gas including hydrogen coupled in flow communication with the shifted syngas, the source of gas configured to be mixed with the shifted syngas to increase the H2/CO ratio of the shifted syngas, a vess el including an inlet and an outlet, the inlet configured to receive the gas and shifted syngas mixture, the vessel including a catalyst configured to facilitate a Fischer- Tropsch synthesis reaction at a pressure of approximately 600 psia such that approximately 40 % of the hydrogen/shifted syngas mixture is converted, and a recycle path communicatively coupled between the outlet and inlet configured to channel a n un- reacted hydrogen/shifted syngas mixture to the vessel inlet.</p> |
