Slurry phase Fischer-Tropsch synthesis: Cobalt plus a water-gas shift catalyst, January 1, 1990--March 30, 1990
Experiments to study cobalt-catalyzed reactions of light 1-alkenes added to synthesis gas feed have been performed. Data have been collected at 220{degrees}C, 0.45 to 1.48 MPa and a synthesis gas flow rate between 0.015 and 0.030 Nl/(gcatmin) with H{sub 2}/CO of 1.45 to 2.25. C{sub 2}H{sub 4}, C{sub 3}H{sub 6}, and C{sub 4}H{sub 8} were added to the synthesis gas feed in concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 1.2 mole% of total feed. For each material balance in which 1-alkenes were added, a material balance was performed at similar process conditions without 1-alkenes added. This use of base case'' process conditions should make data analysis and interpretation easier. Material balances without 1-alkenes were also repeated to allow verification of catalyst selectivity stability. A total of 49 balances were performed during a single run which lasted over 2500 hours-on-stream. The hydrocarbon data have not yet been completed analyzed.
