The Fischer-Tropsch process is used to produce:
Correct answer: B. Synthetic fuels (hydrocarbons) from syngas
- A. Ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen
- B. Synthetic fuels (hydrocarbons) from syngas
- C. Aluminum from bauxite
- D. Sulfuric acid from sulfur
Explanation
The Fischer-Tropsch process is a collection of chemical reactions that converts a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen (known as syngas) into liquid hydrocarbons. It is a key technology for producing synthetic transportation fuels.
