Titre :	A Natural Gas to Liquids Process Model for Optimal Operation
Type de document :	texte imprimé
Auteurs :	Mehdi Panahi, Auteur ; Ahmad Rafiee, Auteur ; Sigurd Skogestad, Auteur
Année de publication :	2012
Article en page(s) :	pp. 425-433
Note générale :	Chimie industrielle
Langues :	Anglais (eng)
Mots-clés :	Modeling Natural gas
Résumé :	The design and optimization of a natural gas to hydrocarbon liquids (GTL) process is considered, mainly from the view of maximizing the variable income during operation. Autothermal reforming (ATR) is used for synthesis gas production. The kinetic model for Fischer-Tropsch (FT) reactions is the one given by Iglesia et al. for a cobalt-based FT reactor. For the product distribution, three alternative expressions for the chain growth factor α are compared.
