A cobalt- or ruthenium-containing hydrocarbon synthesis catalyst, subjected to short term, reversible, partial deactivation in a slurry synthesis process can be rejuvenated, e.g., to at least about 80+% catalyst activity recovery, by treating the catalyst in the presence of liquid hydrocarbons, preferably slurry hydrocarbon liquids, with hydrogen at elevated temperatures and pressures. <IMAGE> |
