摘要

The present invention relates to a catalyst for use in a process for the preparation of hydrocarbons comprising cobalt and manganese and/or vanadium, supported on a carrier, wherein the cobalt:(manganese+vanadium) atomic ratio is at least 12:1. Preferably, the cobalt:(manganese+vanadium) atomic ratio is at most 1500:1. The invention further relates to a process for the preparation of hydrocarbons which comprises contacting a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide at elevated temperature and pressure with a catalyst as described hereinbefore. Typically, at least part of the cobalt is present in the metallic state.
