<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a plant for synthesizing an oxygen-containing hydrocarbon, capable of increasing a reaction rate, readily removing a reaction heat and effectively suppressing the deterioration of a catalyst. SOLUTION: When a raw material gas sent through a compressor 5 is supplied together with a supercritical fluid through a heat exchanger 6 and a temperature controller 7 to a reactor 1, a fine grain catalyst 9 housed in the reactor 1 is dispersed into hexane contained in the supplied gas to form a fluidized bed. A gas for synthesis consisting of the raw material gas and an unreacted gas is passed through the fluidized bed thus formed and a methanol synthesizing reaction is carried out during the passage. Then, a gas after passing through the fluidized bed is discharged as an exhaust gas from the top of an external container 2 to the outside, supplied through the heat exchanger 6 to a separating apparatus 4 and methanol is taken out by the separating apparatus 4.</p> |
