A reactor containing one or more spiral paths adapted to facilitate the reaction of feed stock, syn-gas with a catalyst or catalysts, for the purpose of synthesizing multiple longer chains of hydrocarbons where there the reactor is further adapted to manage the inflow of syn-gas feed stock, the outflow of hydrocarbon products the recycling of catalysts to ensure minimal maintenance interruptions, where the solid catalyst nodules are of a geometry and size contusive to fluid like movement through the reactor and through a regenerative catalysts management operation. The unit operates with minimal support infrastructure. 1. A system , comprising:a number of elements including:a Fischer-Tropsch reactor;an integrated power source;filter and processing equipment to extract impurities form air, water and short chain gaseous hydrocarbon feed stock;a boiler to produce high pressure steam;a methane to synthesis gas (syn-gas) reformer;a waste water purification system; anda catalyst management system;wherein the system is portable;wherein the elements are communicably coupled and are contained in a single housing of dimensions meeting intermodal shipping container requirements.2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the reactor allows at least one of catalyst removal claim 1 , inspection claim 1 , replacement regeneration claim 1 , or re-activation without reactor shutdown.3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the catalyst management system removes catalysts from the Fischer-Tropsch reactor while it is in operation claim 1 , and inspects the catalyst for degradation.4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the catalyst management system utilizes chemical and mechanical techniques to reactivate the catalyst and either reinsert it in the Fischer-Tropsch reactor or replace it from a ready supply.5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the catalyst management system retains any replaced catalyst or chemicals for future use or disposal.6. The system of claim 1 , wherein waste product water is ...
