A process (10) for producing liquid and, optionally, gaseous products from gaseous reactants includes feeding at a low level gaseous reactants (14) and, optionally, a portion of a recycle gas stream into a vertically extending slurry bed (70) of solid particles suspended in a suspension liquid insid
A process (10) for producing liquid and, optionally, gaseous products from gaseous reactants includes feeding at a low level gaseous reactants (14) and, optionally, a portion of a recycle gas stream into a vertically extending slurry bed (70) of solid particles suspended in a suspension liquid inside a vessel (12), and feeding, as an additional gas feed (58), at least a portion of the recycle gas stream into the slurry bed (70) above the level at which the gaseous reactants (814) are fed into the slurry bed (70) and above the lower 20% of the vertical height of the slurry bed (70).

The invention claimed is: 1. A process for producing liquid and, optionally, gaseous products from gaseous reactants, which process includes feeding at a low level gaseous reactants and, optionally, a portion of a recycle gas stream into a vertically extending slurry bed of solid particles suspende
The invention claimed is: 1. A process for producing liquid and, optionally, gaseous products from gaseous reactants, which process includes feeding at a low level gaseous reactants and, optionally, a portion of a recycle gas stream into a vertically extending slurry bed of solid particles suspended in a suspension liquid inside a vessel; feeding, as an additional gas feed, at least a portion of the recycle gas stream into the slurry bed above the level at which the gaseous reactants are fed into the slurry bed and above the lower 20% of the vertical height of the slurry bed; allowing the gaseous reactants and recycled gas to react as they pass upwardly through the slurry bed, thereby to form liquid and, optionally, gaseous products, and with the liquid product forming together with the suspension liquid, a liquid phase of the slurry bed; allowing any gaseous product and unreacted gaseous reactants and unreacted recycled gas to disengage from the slurry bed into a head space above the slurry bed; withdrawing any gaseous product and unreacted gaseous reactants and unreacted recycled gas from the head space; withdrawing liquid phase from the slurry bed, to maintain the slurry bed at a desired level; and recycling at least some of the gaseous components from the head space to provide the recycle gas stream. 2. The process as claimed in claim 1, which includes allowing slurry to pass downwardly from a high level in the slurry bed to a lower level thereof, using slurry redistribution means or slurry redistributors, thereby to redistribute solid particles within the slurry bed. 3. The process as claimed in claim 1, in which the additional gas feed is fed at a level which is located between 20% and 80% of the vertical height of the slurry bed. 4. The process as claimed in claim 1, in which the solid particles are catalyst particles for catalyzing the reaction of the gaseous reactants into the liquid product, and, when applicable, the gaseous product; and the suspension liquid is the liquid product. 5. The process as claimed in claim 1, which is a hydrocarbon synthesis process wherein the gaseous reactants are capable of reacting catalytically in the slurry bed to form liquid hydrocarbon product and, optionally, gaseous hydrocarbon product. 6. The process as claimed in claim 1, in which the additional gas feed makes up at least 10% of the total volumetric feed rate of gas entering the slurry bed. 7. The process as claimed in claim 1, in which the additional gas feed does not make up more than 60% of the total volumetric feed rate of gas entering the slurry bed. 8. The process as claimed in claim 1, in which the additional gas feed is fed at a level which is located above 30% of the vertical height of the slurry bed. 9. The process as claimed in claim 1, in which the entire recycle gas stream forms part of the additional gas feed.
