Title: Slurry phase Fischer-Tropsch synthesis: Cobalt plus a water-gas shift catalyst

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6873549· OSTI ID:6873549

Most of this quarter has been devoted to design, construction and installation of a new external catalyst reduction unit. In this report, methods of reducing cobalt-based Fischer-Tropsch catalysts are reviewed, in an effort to develop an understanding of the important parameters which affect the reduction of cobalt catalysts. Design considerations for the external reduction unit are also presented.
