Optimum catalytic process for alcohol fuels from syngas: Seventh quarterly technical progress report

Technical Report · Sat Oct 29 04:00:00 EDT 1988

DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6130356· OSTI ID:6130356

The objectives of this contract are to discover and evaluate the catalytic properties of novel homogeneous, heterogeneous, or combination catalytic systems for the production of alcohol fuel extenders from syngas, to evaluate analytically and on the bench scale novel reactor concepts for use in converting syngas to liquid fuel products, and to develop on the bench scale the best combination of chemistry, reactor, and total process configuration to achieve the minimum product cost for conversion of syngas to liquid fuel products. Catalysts investigated include: ruthenium and molybdenum sulfides impregnated with cobalt. 7 figs., 9 tabs.
