Abstract

See full text

A method for generating hydrocarbon compounds containing at least two carbon atoms (C2+ compounds) comprises directing a natural gas feed stream from a non-Fischer Tropsch process and comprising methane and C2+ compounds to at least one separation unit to separate the methane from the C2+ compounds. The separated C2+ compounds are directed to a fractionation unit to separate the separated C2+ compounds into individual streams. The separated methane is directed to a synthesis gas (syngas) unit to partially oxidize the methane to hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO), which are subsequently directed to a Fischer-Tropsch unit comprising a Fischer-Tropsch catalyst. In the Fischer-Tropsch unit, the hydrogen and carbon monoxide react to generate C2+ compounds in a Fischer-Tropsch process. The C2+ compounds are directed to the fractionation unit to separate the generated C2+ compounds into streams each comprising a subset of the generated C2+ compounds.
