Synfuel cycle

The reforming and gasification reactions described in Chapter 1 and the S5mfuel syntheses described in Section 2.6.5 are interlinked in what can be termed the synfuel cycle [413] [415] illustrated in Figure 2.40. Depending on the economic situation, various routes have been feasible. This demonstrates the flexibility created by S5mgas.
