What are the challenges in the Fischer-Tropsch Process?
Despite its advantages, the Fischer-Tropsch Process faces several challenges, including:
Catalyst Deactivation: Catalysts can become deactivated over time due to carbon deposition, sintering, or poisoning by impurities in the feedstock. Selectivity: Achieving high selectivity towards desired products while minimizing the formation of undesired by-products is challenging. Heat Management: The exothermic nature of the reaction requires efficient heat management to prevent hot spots and ensure uniform temperature distribution.
