Abstract

Laboratory experiments conducted for long time on stream (TOS: 14,350 h) provide information on Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) that is representative of time scales of industrial operations. Operation conditions that deliver desirable conversion and product distribution were investigated. Low gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) gave the highest conversion of 20.97% with the highest C 5+ selectivity achieved was 59.77%, which was obtained at the highest GHSV level. A one-way ANOVA, followed by a post-hoc Bonferroni correction test, indicated a significant difference in response to GHSV with P(T
