Inspired by patents from the 1960s audio cassette recording industry, chemists now developed a new Fischer-Tropsch catalyst. It can be used for the making of synthetic fuels from natural gas and ...
A fundamental discovery about the Fischer Tropsch process, a catalytic reaction used in industry to convert coal, natural gas or biomass to liquid fuels, could someday allow for more efficient fuel ...
The aviation industry accounts for a significant share of global carbon emissions. In response, the international community ...
The Fischer Tropsch process was found to oscillate between high and low activity states, a behavior that could enhance the reaction rate and yield of desired products. Traditionally misunderstood, ...
The Fischer-Tropsch section (mid left) and the syngas section (mid right) appear in this recent photo of Syntroleum Corp.'s pilot plant inside the gate at the Cherry Point, Wash., refinery. The plant ...
WHOEVER SAID, "It's difficult to make predictions, especially about the future," probably wasn't referring to Fischer-Tropsch (FT) chemistry. But the adage is apt just the same. The economics of ...
Eindhoven University of Technology researchers have developed iron-based catalysts that substantially reduce operating costs and open the door to capturing the large amounts of CO2 that are generated ...
