摘要
The effect of Co particle size on the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis(FTS) activity of carbon nanotube(CNT)-supported Co catalysts was investigated. Microemulsion(using water-to-surfactant molar ratios of 2 to12) and impregnation techniques were used to prepare catalysts with different Co particle sizes. Kinetic studies were performed to understand the effect of Co particle size on catalytic activity. Size-dependent kinetic parameters were developed using a thermodynamic method, to evaluate the structural sensitivity of the CNT-supported Co catalysts. The size-independent FTS reaction rate constant and size-independent adsorption parameter increased with increasing reaction temperature. The Polani parameter also depended on catalyst particle size, because of changes in the catalyst surface coverage.
