NEVER EVER go to the UPS Store on Jefferson in Towne Center, Baton Rouge. I went there to ship some samples of FT synthetic wax to a client and they totally phucked it up. Then the manager stepped in and phucked it up again.

Is the synthetic wax for use with a lifelike silicone doll?

Fischer-Tropsch is a process for making several end products from syngas. You have probably smeared some wax based cosmetics on your face recently that was made with the process.

Nah, it's hard wax, the best wax for lubricant to make PVC pipe so it slips out of the molds is one use. Used in pharma and cosmetics too

Natural gas is reformed into synfuel, hydrogen and carbon monoxide, with some carbon dioxide. The hydrogen and carbon monoxide are reacted with catalyst to make a very waxy synthetic crude oil. In this case, the naphtha and diesel fractions were removed resulting in a black wax. That was is hydrogenated using powdered nickel as a catalyst to remove the impurities. It is hydrogenated again to make it harder so melts at 100 Deg C, 212 deg F. The big producers are Sasol in Sasolburg, South Africa and Shell Chemical in Bintulu Malaysia for wax.
The big FT plants in Qatar hydrocrack the syncrude into naphtha, diesel and base oil to make lubricants from. It is all sulfur free

I bought, gambled, half a truckload in drums at the auctioning off of SGCE Energia in Pasadena, TX, when its plant Juniper GTL was auctioned off in Westlake, LA the second time. It was all from the pilot plant in Pasadena. The full scale plant was never completed. 6 years later it might pay off

IMO, Investment bankers can really suck if they are using your money for the investment, especially if you are an Arab sheik from UAE, reportedly $200 - $300 million which should have taken on $75 million to complete

When there was one on Corporate it was fine but the new one is crap. They messed up the delivery address after I signed for the proper one. There was no challenging, They just had no clue at what they were doing.
