The development of efficient gas-to-liquid fuels processes is driven by the availability of abundant natural gas reserves and environmental advantages of synthetic liquid fuels. In this study, a new molybdenum-tungsten carbide catalyst that with excellent performance but 80 times cheaper than noble metal catalysts is proposed. It is especially attractive for industrial applications because it can be used for steam reforming of natural gas to synthesis gas, and subsequent conversion to gasoline. This represents huge cost savings in catalyst and energetically-efficient reactors in the global petrochemical industry where millions of dollars are spent annually on catalyst improvement and rehabilitation.

天然气储量丰富和合成液体燃料的环境优势推动了高效气制液体燃料工艺的发展。本研究提出了一种新型的钯-碳化钨催化剂，该催化剂具有优异的性能，但比贵金属催化剂便宜80倍。它对工业应用特别有吸引力，因为它可以用于天然气到合成气的蒸汽重整，以及随后转化为汽油。这意味着全球石化行业在催化剂和高效反应器方面节省了大量成本，每年在催化剂改进和修复方面花费数百万美元。
