CATALYST FOR PRODUCING HYDROCARBON FROM SYNTHETIC GAS, METHOD FOR PRODUCING CATALYST, METHOD FOR REGENERATING CATALYST, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING HYDROCARBON FROM SYNTHETIC GAS

摘要

A catalyst for F-T synthesis which exhibits high activity, long life, and high water resistance without deteriorating strength and attrition resistance is disclosed. A method for producing such a catalyst, a method for regenerating such a catalyst, and a method for producing a hydrocarbon by using such as catalyst are also disclosed. Specifically, a catalyst for producing a hydrocarbon from a syngas, wherein cobalt metal, or cobalt metal and cobalt oxides; and zirconium oxides are supported by a catalyst support mainly composed of silica, is disclosed. This catalyst is characterized in that the content of impurities of the catalyst 0.01mass% to 0.15mass%. Specifically, a method for producing such a catalyst, a method for regenerating such a catalyst, and a method for producing a hydrocarbon by using such a catalyst are also disclosed.
