Abstract
A carbon-bearing feedstock is reacted with oxygen and water in a partial oxidation reactor to produce a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. The hydrogen is removed as a first product and the remaining carbon monoxide is reacted with steam over a bifunctional catalyst to produce higher hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide. The bifunctional catalyst provides water gas shift and Fischer-Tropsch functions.
