Breaking the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis selectivity: direct conversion of syngas to gasoline over hierarchical Co/H-ZSM-5 catalysts

Adsorptive characterization of porous solids: Error analysis guides the way

“…To elaborate on this in particular, a sample of mesoporous zeolite H-ZSM-5 showing distinct type-H2 hysteresis behaviour (IUPAC classification) [2,3], obtained via desilication has been included [86]. This because the TSE is particularly visible for this type of hysteresis [4].…”

Carbon Spheres Prepared by Hydrothermal Synthesis—A Support for Bimetallic Iron Cobalt Fischer–Tropsch Catalysts

“…[1,2] These carbon sources provide alternative non-crude-oil routes for the synthesis of petrol, diesel and chemicals. FT synthesis thus continues to receive attention from researchers, which has led to many technical advances in the FT process.…”

“…This is as ignificant observation as it demonstrates that the pore structure of CSs prepared by hydrothermal synthesis can be tuned by as imple variation of the duration of the thermalt reatment.T his could offer significant ad- www.chemcatchem.org vantagesi nc atalyst preparation as it allows for the elimination of micropores in the support material, which can cause masstransfer limitations during FT synthesis.

Six-flow operations for catalyst development in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis: Bridging the gap between high-throughput experimentation and extensive product evaluation

“…As a show case, the current setup has been employed for studying a number of zeolite-containing Cocatalysts which are proven to combine FTS and acid catalyzed reactions. [27][28][29][30][31] The product compositions of these catalysts above C11 cannot be described by an ASF distribution. 27,30 Therefore, an almost extensive analysis of liquid products was essential ( Figure S4 in the supplementary material 17 ) in addition to a time efficient catalyst screening.…”

“…23 Although this assumption is fairly relevant for many catalytic systems, several reports deal with non-ASF product distributions. 24 Dissimilar sites or (parallel) growth mechanisms in one catalyst, 25 altered α values in different carbon number regions, 26 and the so-called "bifunctional catalysts" that represent a "break" in ASF plot 27 are among such exceptions. Moreover, the degree of saturation (and/or branching) may vary at different hydrocarbon ranges, even over an ASF-behaving catalyst.…”
