SYSTEM OF LIQUID FUEL SYNTHESIS Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC C10G2/00 C10G45/00 C10L1/04 C10G7/00 C07C1/04 C07C9/00 C01B3/24 

FIELD: oil and gas production.

SUBSTANCE: system of liquid fuel synthesis consists of reforming unit converting stock hydrocarbon material for production of synthetic gas containing gaseous monoxide of carbon and gaseous hydrogen as basic components. Further, the system consists of a reactor synthesising liquid hydrocarbons out of gaseous monoxide of carbon and gaseous hydrogen contained in synthetic gas by means of reaction of Fischer- Tropsch synthesis. The system also includes a refinement processing unit treating liquid hydrocarbons synthesised in the reactor, and a unit heating liquid hydrocarbons introduced into the refinement processing unit with utilisation of spent gas. This gas is produced by combustion of gaseous fuel in a burner of the reforming unit and is withdrawn from the reforming unit as heat carrier. Spent gas is supplied into the refinement processing unit directly. The latter corresponds either to a rectifying column performing fraction distillation of liquid hydrocarbons into multitude of types of liquid fuel with different boiling temperature and/or to a reactor for hydrogenation of liquid hydrocarbons.

EFFECT: increased heat efficiency of whole system of liquid fuel synthesis.
