Progress in reactors for Higherature Fischer-Tropsch: determination place of intensifier reactor perspective

Higherature Fischer-Tropsch (HTFT) process aims to produce lighter cuts such as gasoline and diesel. For many years there have been studies and improvements on HTFT process to make the existing reactors more efficient. Recent studies proposed new configurations such as dual-type membrane reactor and...
