The first experiments on catalytic hydrogenation of carbon monoxide were carried out at the
beginning of 20th century. In 1902, Sabatier and Senderens synthesized methane from a …

Abstract The Fischer‐Tropsch synthesis is at the heart of the Biomass‐to‐Liquids (BTL)
process. Feasibility studies published in open literature typically consider cobalt‐based …

A systematic study of the effect of γ-Al2O3 support variables on Fischer–Tropsch synthesis
activity and selectivity was carried out at industrially relevant conditions (T= 483 K, P= 20 …

With fast increasing demand in liquid transportation fuels, limited and unevenly distributed
petroleum resources, and volatile petroleum prices, coal liquefaction technologies have …

Diminishing petroleum reserves, sharp fluctuations of crude oil prices, increasingly stringent
environmental regulations and the global demand for a decreased dependence on …

The structure of cobalt species at different stages of the genesis of monometallic and Pt-
promoted cobalt alumina-supported Fischer–Tropsch catalysts was studied using X-ray …

The conversion of syngas to hydrocarbons via Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) and to
alcohols via higher alcohols synthesis (HAS) are two important chemical reactions that …

A series of cobalt catalysts supported on silica with different pore size were prepared by
incipient wetness impregnation method. N2 physisorption, XRD, H2-TPR, H2-TPD, DRIFTS …

Support effects in heterogeneous catalysis are evolving as an important field of investigation
to optimize catalyst properties. The cobalt-based Fischer–Tropsch (FT) catalysts usually …

Co/SBA-15 (30wt.%) catalysts with different pore sizes were prepared from the same
materials by incipient wetness impregnation and characterized by diffuse reflectance …
