Fischer-Tropsch method aims at the ______________________?
Correct answer: D. Synthesis of gasoline (from water gas)
- A. Gasification of coal
- B. None of these
- C. Hydrogenation of coal to produce gasoline
- D. Synthesis of gasoline (from water gas)
Explanation
The Fischer-Tropsch process catalytically converts synthesis gas, mainly CO and H₂ from water gas, into liquid hydrocarbons such as synthetic gasoline. It is not the direct hydrogenation of coal, which is the Bergius process.
