Fischer–Tropsch Synthesis: Computational Sensitivity Modeling for Series of Cobalt Catalysts
(10/15/2019)
Nearly a century ago, Fischer and Tropsch discovered a means of synthesizing organic compounds ranging from C1 to C70 by reacting carbon monoxide and hydrogen on a catalyst. Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) is now known as ...
Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis: Cd, In and Sn Effects on a 15%Co/Al2O3 Catalyst
(10/16/2019)
The effects of 1% of Cd, In and Sn additives on the physicochemical properties and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) performance of a 15% Co/Al2O3 catalyst were investigated. The fresh and spent catalysts were characterized ...
Fischer–Tropsch: Product Selectivity–The Fingerprint of Synthetic Fuels
(3/14/2019)
The bulk of the products that were synthesized from Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) is a wide range (C1–C70) of hydrocarbons, primarily straight-chained paraffins. Additional hydrocarbon products, which can also be a ...
Editorial: Cobalt and Iron Catalysis
(12/27/2019)
Cobalt and iron have long history of importance in the field of catalysis that continues to this day. Currently, both are prevalent metals in a multitude of catalytic processes: [...]
The Preparation and Characterization of Co–Ni Nanoparticles and the Testing of a Heterogenized Co–Ni/Alumina Catalyst for CO Hydrogenation
(12/21/2019)
Samples of well-controlled nanoparticles consisting of alloys of cobalt and nickel of different atomic ratios were synthesized using wet chemical methods with oleylamine as the solvent and the reducing agent. These materials ...
