A compact catalytic reactor for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis defines a multiplicity of first and second flow channels arranged alternately in the reactor, for carrying a gas mixture which undergoes Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, and a coolant fluid, respectively. Each first flow channel contains a removable gas-permeable catalyst structure incorporating a metal substrate. A multiplicity of flow paths are defined through the catalyst structure, and the voidage, that is to say the proportion of the cross-sectional area of the first flow channel constituted by the said multiplicity of flow paths, is between 25% and 75%. This provides an optimum balance between productivity and selectivity, so that operation of the reactor can be economic and controllable.

La présente invention décrit un réacteur catalytique compact pour une synthèse Fischer-Tropsch qui comprend une multiplicité de premiers et de seconds canaux d'écoulement disposés alternativement dans le réacteur, pour le transport respectivement d'un mélange de gaz qui subit une synthèse Fischer-Tropsch et d~un fluide de refroidissement. Chaque premier canal d~écoulement comprend une structure catalytique amovible perméable au gaz qui comporte un substrat métallique. Une multiplicité de voies d~écoulement est définie dans la structure catalytique, et la porosité, c~est-à-dire la proportion de la surface de la section transversale du premier canal d~écoulement constitué par ladite multiplicité des voies d~écoulement, se situe entre 25 % et 75 %. Ceci procure un équilibre optimal entre la productivité et la sélectivité, de sorte que le fonctionnement du réacteur peut être économique et contrôlable.
