PROCEDE DE SYNTHESE D'HYDROCARBURES A PARTIR DE GAZ DE SYNTHESE EN PRESENCE D'UN ALLIAGE METALLIQUE DE RANEY DISPERSE DANS UNE PHASE LIQUIDE

摘要

The catalyst contains a high proportion of metal which enables its easy separation from the reaction products by simple techniques such as decantation and magnetic separation. The synthesis of hydrocarbons from a mixture of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), and optionally carbon dioxide (CO2) (synthesis gas) is carried out in the presence of a catalyst comprising a Raney metallic alloy dispersed in a liquid phase. The catalyst comprises at least 60% of a metal from groups 8, 9 or 10.
