CO HYDROGENATION WITH MOLYBDENUM ON WIDE-PORE CARBON CATALYSTS

摘要

New catalysts comprising molybdenum on supports of defined wide-pore carbons are useful as catalyst for reaction of CO with H2 for synthesis of hydrocarbons. Catalysts may be made by depositing Mo(CO)6 on the carbon support particles by vapor deposition or solution impregnation. The catalyst may also comprise a second metal, such as rhodium or palladium.
