Includes bibliographical references. The FT synthesis has been used predominantly for production of automotive fuels. This has made the financial benefit from the FT process heavily reliant on crude oil prices. Increasing the financial viability of the process has been achieved by improving production methods, production of alternative products such as waxes, lubricants, as well as valuable chemicals such as olefins and oxygenates. In an attempt to produce additional chemicals in the FT reaction, this work investigates the synthesis of nitrogen containing compounds via ammonia addition to a low temperature, low pressure, slurry reactor using an unsupported, potassium-promoted, precipitated iron catalyst. The process is subjected to various ammonia contents in the feed. 2015-01-05T06:49:32Z 2015-01-05T06:49:32Z 2013 Master Thesis Masters MEng http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11354 eng application/pdf Department of Chemical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
