Abstract:The performance of ZrO2-La promoted silica supported cobalt catalyst (100Co/15ZrO2/ 100Aerosil/0.66La) was compared to the ZrO2-Ru promoted one, 100Co/15ZrO2/100Aerosil/0.66Ru, in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS). These catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation and incipient wetness impregnation methods. The characterization by XRD confirmed the cobalt phase of Co3O4 in both catalysts. For their catalytic activity on FTS reaction, the results preliminarily showed the higher methane fraction (60-80%) and lower… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
