Enhancing Cobalt Dispersion in Supported Fischer-Tropsch Catalysts Via Controlled Decomposition of Cobalt Precursors
Fischer-Tropsch synthesis is a part of Gas-to Liquids (GTL), Biomass-to-Liquids (BTL) and Coal to Liquids (CTL) technologies, which produce alternatives clean fuels from natural gas, biomass and coal. The catalytic performance of cobalt catalysts in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis strongly depends on the size of cobalt particles in nanoscale range (6-30 nm). Cobalt catalysts are usually prepared via ...
متن کاملDeactivation Behavior of Carbon Nanotubes Supported Cobalt Catalysts in Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis
The effects of electronic properties of inner and outer surfaces of Carbon Nano Tubes (CNTs) on the deactivation of cobalt Fischer-Tropsch (FT) catalysts were studied. The comparative characterization of the fresh and used catalysts by TEM, XRD, TPR, BET and H2 chemisorption showed that cobalt re-oxidation, cobalt-support interactions and sintering are the main sources o...
متن کاملTechnology Development for Iron and Cobalt Fischer-Tropsch Catalysts
A cobalt catalyst (25%Co/γ-Al2O3, prepared by slurry phase impregnation) was used in a fixed bed reactor under a pressure/density tuned supercritical fluid mixture of n-pentane/nhexane. By using an inert gas as a balancing gas to maintain a constant pressure, the density of the supercritical fluid could be tuned near the supercritical point while maintaining constant space velocity within the r...
متن کاملFischer Tropsch Synthesis: A Comparison of Iron and Cobalt Catalysts
Following WW II, it appeared that there would be a severe shortage of crude oil so that U.S. organizations initiated work on Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS). Over a ten year period, the U.S. Bureau of Mines was budgeted $85 million for work on direct and indirect coal liquefaction. These funds would represent more than a billion dollars in today’s marketplace. A large (75 bbl/day) FTS pilot pla...
متن کاملNanoscale Design of Supported Iron Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis Catalysts
Introduction The preparation and characterization of nanophase materials has received considerable attention in recent years, given their potential for improved performance as catalysts, high-strength materials, and semiconductor devices. For example, a recent breakthrough by Sun et al. (1) in the synthesis of highly-dispersed, silica-supported iron-platinum (FePt) bimetallic nanoclusters of co...
