Context. How simple organic matter appeared on Earth and the processes by which it transformed into more evolved compounds, ultimately led to emergence of life, is still an open topic. Different scenarios have been proposed, main one assumes that compounds were synthesized, either in gas phase or surfaces dust grains, during process star formation they incorporated larger bodies protoplanetary ...

Fischer-Tropsch catalyst preparation parameters, such as cobalt precursor and impregnation solvent, determine structure in fine catalytic performances of Co-based catalysts. Co particles 3–7 nm mean size were prepared by incipient wetness on surface-oxidized CNT. In this work, the crucial impact chemistry operating between support during properties is demonstrated, influence CNT surface charact...

While Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) using coal and natural gas in conventional reactors is an almost well-established technology, the production of liquid hydrocarbons from syngas obtained from biomass is in its preliminary stages of commercialization in countries like Germany. With concerns about global warming and ways of disposing of CO2 being searched for, CO2 hydrogenation using FTS to l...
