摘要
The effect of calcination condition on the cobalt species and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) was studied. It was found that higher calcination temperature resulted in decreased FTS activities because CNTs were consumed by oxidation in air at temperature higher than 230 ℃. Cobalt species went through transformation from Co304 to metallic Co in Ar by autoreduction at temperature over 500℃. The autoreduction route might be Co3O4→CoO→C0 or Co3O4→Co2C→Co. Reduction at temperature higher than 500 ℃ also resulted in decreased FTS activities due to the methanation of CNTs in hydrogen.
