Syngas Conversion to Hydrocarbons on Zirconia-Supported Iron Catalysts

Recent advances in the routes and catalysts for ethanol synthesis from syngas

“…According to the alcohol formation mechanism, the introduction of new sites and tunability of the property of the catalyst for supplying non-dissociation adsorbed CO are necessary for the FTS catalyst. [102][103][104] 2.3.1 Co-Based catalysts. In syngas conversion, Co exhibits strong CO dissociation and carbon chain growth ability.…”

Direct Conversion of Syngas to Light Olefins through Fischer–Tropsch Synthesis over Fe–Zr Catalysts Modified with Sodium

“…The structure of the precipitated iron catalyst would be fragmented due to the change in the iron phase during the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis . Owing to the strong interactions between zirconium and iron, the Zr-promoted iron-based catalyst could exhibit the stable activity of FTS . Moreover, Zhang et al found that the zirconium promoter could suppress the hydrogenation of olefins and inhibit the chain growth ability.…”

“…17 Owing to the strong interactions between zirconium and iron, the Zr-promoted iron-based catalyst could exhibit the stable activity of FTS. 18 Moreover, Zhang et al 19 found that the zirconium promoter could suppress the hydrogenation of olefins and inhibit the chain growth ability. Ma et al 20 discussed that Zr could decrease the crystal size, promote dispersion of α-Fe 2 O 3 , and provide abundant surface defects of catalysts.…”
