Sasol to Add Synthetic Fuel Reactor

South African Sasol Company announced in mid-October that it will add reactors to increase synthetic fuel production by 20% in 2015 to 180,000 bbl/d. Sasol currently produces 150,000 barrels per day of synthetic fuel at a coal-to-oil refinery in Sekouda, South Africa.

It is reported that Sasol has signed a contract for manufacturing reactors with Hitachi Shipbuilding Machinery Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Hitachi Shipbuilding Corporation of Japan. The reactor adopts Sasol's advanced SAS reactor technology. It will use coal and natural gas as raw materials to firstly produce syngas, and then convert syngas into liquid fuel and chemical products. The SAS reactor weighs approximately 867 tons, has a diameter of 8 meters and is about 38 meters high. Sasol currently has nine SAS reactors in production in Sekuda. It is understood that Sasol's current production of synthetic fuels accounts for about 35% of South Africa's demand for liquid fuels. The Sekouda expansion project will help the company better meet the needs of domestic and international markets.
