  • Fischer-Tropsch synthesis using industrial process off gas feedstreams
    Patent number: 6627666
    Abstract: A process is described in which the waste gas from the production of acetylene is employed in the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis of hydrocarbon liquids. The process consists of the steps of collecting the waste gas, compressing it to the proper pressure, passing the compressed gas into a reactor containing a Fischer-Tropsch catalyst under the proper conditions of temperature, pressure, and space velocity, and collecting the liquid products thereby formed from the waste gas stream.
