The tailgas <strong>an</strong>d C1 to C4 products are not included in <strong>the</strong> syngas to FT-product efficiency<br />

or <strong>the</strong> feed to FT-product efficiency. The tailgas <strong>an</strong>d C1 to C4 products are sent to turbines <strong>for</strong><br />

power generation, which is included in overall system efficiency.<br />

As mentioned previously, <strong>the</strong> Steynberg et al. case study design is not feasible at a lower<br />

scale. For this reason <strong>the</strong> Larson et al. case study was examined. The Larson et al. case study<br />

design utilizes a once through slurry-phase bubbling reactors utilizing iron based catalyst, given<br />
