FISCHER-TROPSCH CATALYST AND PROCESS FOR PREPARING HYDROCARBONS

摘要

The present invention relates to a Fisher-Tropsch catalyst comprising a compound of a catalytically active metal supported on a titania catalyst carrier having a rutile:anatase ratio of less than 2:3, and a surfa ce area of less than 75 m2/g. The invention further relates to a process for the preparation of such catalyst, and to a process for the preparation of hydrocarbons which comprises contacting a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide at elevated temperature and pressure with the said catalyst.
