Promoter effects on precipitated iron catalysts for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of potassium and copper promotion on the activity and selectivity of precipitated iron catalysts for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) were studied in a fixed bed reactor at 148 MPa and 235-265 C using synthesis gas with a H{sub 2}/CO = 1 molar feed ratio.

TL;DR: In this paper, a commercial promoted precipitated iron catalyst (100 Fe/5 Cu/4.2 K/25 SiO2 by weight) was characterized after different pretreatment conditions and after Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis in a fixed bed reactor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Binder/support effects on the activity and selectivity of iron catalysts in the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis
Dragomir B. Bukur,Xiaosu Lang,Doble Mukesh,William H. Zimmerman,Michael P. Rosynek,Chiuping Li +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of silica and alumina binders (supports) on the activity and product selectivity of precipitated iron catalyst for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) that was studied in a fixed bed reactor at 1.5-3.0 MPa and 220-250{degrees} C, using synthesis gas with H{sub 2}/CO = 1 M feed ratio.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reaction kinetics over iron catalysts used for the fischer-tropsch synthesis
TL;DR: In this paper, the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) and water-gas shift (WGS) reactions were studied in a stirred tank slurry reactor, using a 100 Fe/0.3 Cu/ 0.2 K catalyst and a commercial catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI
Activation studies with a precipitated iron catalyst for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. II. Reaction studies
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of pretreatment conditions on catalyst performance (activity, selectivity, and stability with time) during Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis were studied in a fixed-bed reactor using a commercial precipitated iron catalyst.
