Development of synthesis gas production catalyst and process
2005
Abstract The CO 2 reforming catalyst and process have been developed. The commercial size CO 2 reforming catalyst has been demonstrated its activity and stability in the GTL pilot plant tests for more than 1,100 hours, and the first GTL oil from natural gas in Japan was produced in November 2002. In these tests, synthesis gas was generated by CO 2 and H 2 O reforming with low CO 2 /Carbon and H 2 O/Carbon ratios in feed gas composition. The proprietary catalyst which has high resistance against carbon deposition could allow the stable operation under CO 2 and H2 O reforming conditions. The CO 2 reforming simulator could well represent the results of the pilot plant tests. The proposed process showed superior economics on the feasibility studies of applications to GTL processes.
