PRODUCTION OF HYDROCARBONS BY STEAM REFORMING AND FISCHER-TROPSCH REACTION |
摘要 |
A process for the production of hydrocarbons is described comprising; a) subjecting a mixture of a hydrocarbon feedstock and steam to catalytic steam reforming to form a partially reformed gas, b) subjecting the partially reformed gas to partial combustion with an oxygen-containing gas and bringing the resultant partially combusted gas towards equilibrium over a steam reforming catalyst to form a reformed gas mixture, c) cooling the reformed gas mixture to below the dew point of the steam therein to condense water and separating condensed water to give a de-watered synthesis gas, d) synthesising hydrocarbons from said de-watered synthesis gas by the Fischer-Tropsch reaction and e) separating the hydrocarbons from co-produced water, characterised in that at least part of said co-produced water is fed to a saturator wherein it is contacted with hydrocarbon feedstock to provide at least part of the mixture of hydrocarbon feedstock and steam subjected to steam reforming. By using the co-produced water to produce steam, the efficiency of the overall process is improved and the necessity for separation of contaminants in the co-produced water is reduced or eliminated. |
