Description The declining supply of crude oils worldwide and the ever increasing demand for petroleum products from China, India, Europe and the US
have recently propelled crude prices to unprecedented levels. The future availability of traditional crudes is becoming a source of discussion
and debate.
Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis, Catalysts and Catalysis offers a timely and comprehensive report on the processing
of relatively inexpensive coal deposits into transportation fluids using Fisher-Tropsch process Technology. In addition to recent catalysts
and process developments, the book contains the history of the Fisher-Tropsch in Germany and Japan based on captured documents by allied
forces.
Audience
Practitioners, researchers and students in the petrochemical/petroleum field
