Methanol to diesel

澳大利亚拥有大量偏远地区的天然气储量，这些储量无法通过管道进入市场，也无法通过液化天然气技术有效利用。费托转化气液（GTL）是资本密集型的，对这些搁浅的天然气资源来说是不经济的。该项目将开发一种新的GTL技术来生产无硫、清洁燃烧的柴油。这项研究的成果将是一项前沿技术，可以更有效地利用澳大利亚偏远地区的天然气资源，以满足全球对运输燃料日益增长的需求，为澳大利亚的自然资源增加巨大的价值，并为澳大利亚的工业建设和转型做出贡献。

Australia has large remote gas reserves which are not accessible to markets via pipeline and cannot be effectively utilised using liquefied natural gas technology. Fischer-Tropsch conversion of gas to liquid (GTL), being capital intense, is uneconomical for these stranded gas resources. This project will develop a new GTL technology to produce sulphur-free, clean combustion diesel. The outcomes of this research will be a frontier technology that allows more effective utilisation of Australian remote gas resources to meet rising global demand for transport fuels, adding enormous value to Australian natural resources and contributing to Building and Transforming Australian industries.
