The effect of CeO2 support upon activity and selectivity of Ru and Co Fischer Tropsh catalysts

  • 1. Birmingham Univ. (UK)

Description

Some CeO2 supported Ru and Co catalysts with 5% metal loading were prepared by impregnation methods, and characterised by temperature programmed reduction techniques (TPR). Their catalytic activities and selectivities were tested in H2 + CO reactions and compared with a Ru on SiO2 catalyst in the range of 1-9 atmospheres at 2600C. Ru/SiO2 and Co/SiO2 catalysts gave CH4 only at 1 atm., and = 70% CH4 at 9 atms., whilst CeO2 supported Ru and Co gave significantly smaller quantities (20-80%) of CH4 over the same pressure range
