Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis was studied on a specially prepared Mn/Fe catalyst in the slurry phase. Compared to classical K promoted Fe precipitation catalysts, the Mn/Fe catalyst gives higher yields of C/sub 2/ to C/sub 4/ olefins, i.e., about 60 g/Nm/sup 3/ synthesis gas converted. The product slate follows the Schulz-Flory distribution and is little influenced by operational conditions. From the experimental conversion data, rate constants for overall synthesis gas conversion were calculated. 47 refs.
