Fischer–Tropsch synthesis on a model Co/SiO2 catalyst
نویسندگان
چکیده
A model Co/SiO2 catalyst was prepared by depositing cobalt on silica films in ultrahigh vacuum conditions. Fischer–Tropsch synthesis was carried out at a total pressure of carbon monoxide and hydrogen between 0.33 and 1.0 bar. The effects of reaction temperature and pressure on kinetics and chain growth probability were investigated. The turnover frequency, activation energy, and product distributions were found in good agreement with those obtained on real catalysts. The formation of cobalt oxide or cobalt carbide was not detected after Fischer–Tropsch reaction at the low conversions and low water partial pressures of this work. 2009 Elsevier Inc.

The SiO2 supported cobalt-iron nano catalysts were prepared by the sol-gel method. This research investigated the effects of (Co/Fe) wt.%, different Co/Fe ratio at different temperature and loading of KCl wt.% for Fisher-Tropsch synthesis (FTS). The results were showed that the catalyst containing 50 wt.% (Co/Fe)/SiO2 (Co/Fe ratio is 70/30) which promoted with 0.6 wt.% KCl is an optimal nano ca...

متن کاملA review of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis on the cobalt based catalysts
Fischer-Tropsch synthesis is a promising route for production of light olefins via CO hydrogenation over transition metals. Co is one of the most active metals for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. Some different variables such as preparation parameters and operational factors can strongly affect the selectivity of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis toward the special products. In the case of preparat...

An alumina supported Co/Ni catalyst was prepared by sol-gel procedure to study the catalytic behavior during Fischer-Tropsch synthesis in a fixed-bed reactor. The effect of CO conversion (10-50%) on hydrocarbon product distribution (CH4, C5+ and C2-C4 olefin selectivities) was studied. Selectivity for CH4 decreased, while those of C5+<...
