1) The Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) process was developed in Germany in 1923 to convert synthesis gas (i.e., a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide} into liquid with some gaseous hydrocarbons. Interestingly, the FT process was used in World War II to make gasoline and other fuels. (5 points} a.

The government's MARR is 10% per year, the study period is 30 years, and one gallon of jet fuel costs $2.50. b. If Congress appropriates $40 billion to support the FT process industry, what is the simple payback period
