TheFischer–Tropsch processis a collection ofchemical reactionsthat converts a mixture ofcarbon monoxideandhydrogeninto liquidhydrocarbons. It was first developed byFranz FischerandHans Tropschat the "Kaiser-Wilhelm-Institut für Kohlenforschung" inMülheim an der Ruhr, Germany, in 1925. The process, a key component ofgas to liquidstechnology, produces asynthetic lubrication oilandsynthetic fuel, typically fromcoal,natural gas, orbiomass.The Fischer–Tropsch process has received intermittent attention as a source of low-sulfur diesel fuel and to address the supply or cost of petroleum-derived hydrocarbons.
