Iron and cobalt Fischer-Tropsch catalysts prepared by the solvated metal-atom technique
It is reasonable that at low metal loadings a more active catalyst would result from deposition on a support of a metal in the reduced, metallic state. Deposition of less than 5 wt% cobalt on alumina in the form of cobalt carbonyl produced catalysts of good activity. The Solvated Metal Atom Deposition Technique (SMAD) provides a method of catalyst preparation for which the deposition of metallic catalysts on a support has been demonstrated. This note reports a comparative study of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis activity of iron and cobalt catalysts prepared by this technique and supported on silica with less than 5 wt% of the metal, and of analogous catalysts prepared by conventional impregnation techniques. 16 references.
