摘要:
A transportable GTL processing facility constructed on an inland barge is provided. Also provided is a process for producing liquid hydrocarbons from natural gas utilizing a transportable GTL processing facility. The facility and process may be used to access and convert stranded natural gas in an economical fashion into liquid hydrocarbons. Further provided is a transportable GTL processing facility and process for producing liquid hydrocarbons wherein the liquid hydrocarbons are upgraded into transportation fuels and other locally usable materials.

An optimized Fischer-Tropsch process utilizing a diluted synthesis and one or more Fischer-Tropsch reactors having an overall CO conversion of at least 90%.
摘要:
A method for delivery, replacement and removal of Fischer-Tropsch catalyst from a gas-to-liquid (GTL) facility utilizing a Fischer-Trosch reaction. Embodiments also relate to a method for delivery, replacement and removal of Fischer-Tropsch catalyst from a transportable GTL facility.
摘要:
A system having a movable platform including synthesis gas production, synthetic crude production and product upgrading is provided. The system may include one or more movable platforms on which the various production and/or upgrading facilities are located. A process for converting natural gas to hydrocarbon products is also provided where the process occurs on a movable platform. The process may occur on one or more operationally connected vessels. The movable platform may be any of a number of movable or transportable bases on which process equipment may be placed and/or in which hydrocarbon products may be stored.
摘要:
A method of economically and efficiently converting natural gas into one or more liquid hydrocarbon products is provided in which the method includes the steps of: (a) building a plant comprising one or more modules for the conversion of natural gas into synthesis gas and the conversion of synthesis gas into heavier hydrocarbons and at least one product module on a transportable platform at a location that facilitates heavy construction; (b) transporting the plant to a location containing sufficient natural gas reserves for operation; (c) installing the plant near the natural gas reserve; and (d) producing intermediate or finished liquid hydrocarbon products.

摘要:
A process for the removal of inert gases, such as nitrogen and carbon dioxide, from methane-containing gases, such as natural gas, including a first stage removal which lowers the total combined inert content to about less than 30% and a second stage removal utilizing a pressure swing adsorption process comprising one or more adsorbent beds comprising contracted titanosilicate-1 adsorbent, wherein the purified methane-containing gas contains less than about 6% total combined inerts.

摘要:
A process for regenerating a slurry Fischer-Tropsch catalyst, which needs regeneration, involves de-waxing and drying the catalyst sufficiently to produce a free-flowing catalyst powder that is fluidizable; fluidizing the catalyst powder; treating the catalyst powder with an oxygen treatment; reducing the catalyst powder with a reducing gas to form a reduced catalyst powder; and mixing the reduced catalyst powder with hydrocarbons to form a regenerated, slurry catalyst. The oxidation and reduction steps may be repeated. An oxygen treatment includes using a fixed O2 level with ramped temperatures, fixed temperatures with increased O2 levels, or a combination.
