HTFT (high-temperature Fischer–Tropsch)

High-Temperature Fischer–Tropsch (HTFT) is a process that converts gases like carbon monoxide and hydrogen into liquid fuels such as diesel and jet fuel. Conducted at elevated temperatures (around 300–350°C) over a catalyst, it facilitates chemical reactions that build hydrocarbons—chains of carbon and hydrogen—without using traditional refining methods. HTFT is useful for producing synthetic fuels from natural gas, coal, or biomass, especially when existing resources are abundant or conventional oil is scarce. This process enables cleaner fuel production and supports energy diversification, playing a significant role in synthetic fuel manufacturing and resource utilization.
