Comparison of Cobalt Based Catalysts Supported on MWCNT and SBA-15 Supporters for Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis by Using Autoclave Type Reactor Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • 10 and 40 wt% Co/Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT) and 10 and 40 wt% Co/Santa Barbara Amorphous-15 (SBA-15) catalysts were prepared via incipient wetness impregnation method. It was characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy, BET, X-ray Diffractometry (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Temperature-Programmed Reduction and H2Desorption. A 200 ml hastelloy autoclave reactor was implemented to see the performance of the catalysts. It was observed that the performance of 40 wt% Co/SBA-15 was higher that other catalysts in terms of production of longer chain paraffins.
