✦ Synopsis

A simple criterion permits one to predict when a liquid phase will form in Fischer-Tropsch reactors with Schulz-Glory product distributions. The composition and quantity of the liquid can be calculated from the chain-growth probability and the usual operating data. Such calculations are important for slurry reactors, where the hydrodynamics are strongly dependent on liquid composition, and for experimental fixed-bed reactors for the purpose of obtaining a mass balance. Fixed-bed and fluid&d-bed reactors cannot be operated so as to maximize the production of cuts heavier than gasoline without the formation of liquid in the reactor.

The objective of this study was to develop a kinetic model to describe the selectivity typical of iron-based Fischer-Tropsch catalysts and to compare the simulations of the process in the slurry stirred tank reactors with experimental data. The model accounts for the formation of paraffins and olefi

## Abstract The product distribution for the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis is normally described using the kinetically derived (Anderson–Schultz–Flory) ASF model. Variations of the kinetic model have been proposed to explain deviations from the ASF distribution. The Fischer–Tropsch system can be equall

A physical model is presented which descri'bes the local mixing in the liquid phase of twophase gas-liquid flows agitated by rising bubbles. It corresponds to the stochastic mathematical model descrii by Nassar et al (1992). The transport of liquid in the bubble wakes is assumed to be the dominating
