Zusammenfassung:A system including at least one hydrogen extraction unit comprising an inlet for a synthesis feedgas from a synthesis feedgas line and adapted to remove at least one hydrogen-rich gas and at least one hydrogen-lean gas from the synthesis feedgas to yield a refined synthesis gas; and at least one hydrocarbon synthesis reactor, at least one dedicated activation reactor, or both, wherein the at least one hydrocarbon synthesis reactor is fluidly connected with the at least one hydrogen extraction unit and configured to provide liquid hydrocarbons and a first byproduct gas from a synthesis reactor feedstream comprising at least a portion of the refined synthesis gas; and wherein the at least one dedicated activation reactor is fluidly connected with the at least one hydrogen extraction unit, the at least one hydrocarbon synthesis reactor, or both, and configured for activation of hydrocarbon synthesis catalyst via an activation gas.
