DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5384289· OSTI ID:5384289

Work during this quarter concentrated on Task 4 of the study. The objective of this task is to evaluate the application of the UOP/BP Cyclar* process to the upgrading of Fischer-Tropsch LPG products into aromatics. Results from pilot plant studies were translated into commercial yield estimates as described in Quarterly Report No. 7. This quarterly report documents an economic evaluation of the Cyclar process for converting LPG into aromatics in a Fischer-Tropsch upgrading complex. 1 ref., 11 figs., 9 tabs.
