Abstract

On the basis of the global CO consumption rate model, the lumped product distribution model and the sedimentation-dispersion model of a catalyst, a steady-state, one-dimensional mathematical model of the slurry bubble column reactor for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis were established. The mathematical simulation of the slurry bubble column reactor for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis was carried out under the following typical industrial operating conditions: temperature 230 °C, pressure 3.0 MPa, gas flow 5×105 m3/h, catalyst content in slurry phase 30%, reactor diameter 5.0 m and the composition of feed gas: y(H2)=0.60, y(CO)=0.30, y(N2)=0.10. The influences of operating pressure, temperature and m(H2)/m(CO) in feed gas on the reactor’s reaction performance were simulated.
