ABSTRACT:

A 3,183-hour long catalyst aging slurry bubble column reactor test run utilizing one of the selected catalysts prepared by Calsicat started on January 8, 1996 was ended on May 20, 1996. The effects of temperature, pressure, and catalyst age on catalyst productivity, product distribution, methane yields, Anderson-Shulz-Flory chain growth probability were determined utilizing one of the bench-scale slurry bubble column reactors.  Experimental details about this run as well as the results and conclusions derived from it will be provided in the final report.
