Catalyst for reducing carbon monoxide by means of hydrogen so as to obtain a mixture consisting substantially of C1-C4-hydrocarbons. The catalyst is made by precipitating a salt of a hydrocyanic acid of the general formula MeIMeII(CN)x, separating and drying the salt so precipitated and forming it. In the formula, the cationic component Me I stands for at least one of the elements Ce, Cu, Co, Ni, Fe, Mn, Zn, Ag and K or a mixture of these elements, or for Ca or Mg in admixture with (NH)4; the anionic component MeII stands for at least one of the elements Cu, Co, Ni, Fe, Mn, Zn and Ag or a mixture of these elements; and x stands for the sum of the metal valencies; MeI and MeII are not permitted to stand for iron alone, or for a mixture of iron with copper. |
