COBALT BASED FISHER-TROPSCH CATALYST

摘要

A process for the preparation of a cobalt-containing catalyst or catalyst precursor, comprising (a) mixing (1) titania or a titania precursor, (2) a liquid, and (3) a cobalt compound, which is at least partially insoluble in the amount of liquid used, to form a mixture, (b) shaping and drying of the mixture thus-obtained, and (c) calcination of the composition thus-obtained. A catalyst or catalyst precursor obtainable by the process as defined, and a process for the preparation of hydrocarbons comprising contacting a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen with the catalyst as defined.
