Verfahren zur Fischer-Tropsch-Synthese in Gegenwart eines Katalysators mit vorbestimmter Grösse der Metallpartikel

摘要

The process is effected in the presence of a catalyst of improved reducibility compared to similar catalysts of prior art. The preparation of the catalyst results in a product with a lower interaction between metal and support resulting in improved activity. A synthesis of hydrocarbons from a mixture of CO and H2 is effected in the presence of a catalyst comprising a support and at least one group VIII metal. At least 80% of the metallic particles are of a size D-(D.0.2) and D+(D.0.2) where D is the mean particle size. Independent claims are also included for the preparation of the catalyst and the catalyst itself
