Turn domestic coal reserves into high-value, ultra-clean liquid fuels — diesel, methanol and hydrogen — through gasification and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.
Many coal-rich regions still import refined fuels at volatile prices. CTL converts abundant domestic coal into drop-in liquid fuels — capturing far more value at home instead of exporting raw coal and importing diesel.
CTL is a mature, commercially proven pathway built on two core steps: gasification and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.
Coal is converted at high temperature with steam and oxygen into synthesis gas — a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen.
Syngas is cleaned of sulfur, particulates and contaminants, then conditioned to the ideal ratio for downstream synthesis.
Clean syngas is catalytically converted into ultra-clean diesel, methanol and hydrogen — fuels with near-zero sulfur and aromatics.
CTL plants are designed around the coal available at your site — from low-rank coal and lignite to bituminous grades — with gasifier selection matched to feedstock characteristics.
