Selective Synthesis and Chain Growth of Linear Hydrocarbons in the Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis over Zeolite-Entrapped Cobalt Catalysts

Promotion Effects in Co‐Based Fischer—Tropsch Catalysis

“…Recent studies with ordered mesoporous oxides have shown that cobalt particles with defined particle sizes by confinement within the mesoporous channels are active for F-T catalysis. [180][181][182][183][184][185][186][187][188][189][190] An increase of the average particle size of the supported Co particles was found with increasing pore size of the mesopores silica; these larger particles are more reducible and lead to catalyst materials with higher F-T activity. Similar effects have been observed for Co/SiO 2 catalysts made from commercial amorphous silicas with increasing pore diameters.…”

“…ITQ-2 and ITQ-6) are also reported in literature. [180][181][182][183][184][185][186][187][188][189][190] The role of the support material is rather well established. It provides mechanical strength and thermal stability to the Co nanoparticles, while facilitating a high Co dispersion.…”

“…ZSM-5, to the unsupported Mn-Co F-T catalyst in order to shift the product distribution. 109 Two modes of operation were tested. The first was a single bed reactor with a mechanical mixture of the two components.…”

Effect of Manganese Promotion on Al-Pillared Montmorillonite Supported Cobalt Nanoparticles for Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis

“…ZSM-5 supported Mn-Co FT catalyst was investigated by Koh et al. 39 The results showed that the Mn promoted ZSM-5 supported catalyst resulted in the cracking of high molecular weight hydrocarbons into lower alkanes. Zhang et al reported the Mn-promotion in Co/Al 2 O 3 catalysts.…”
