HYDROGENATION OF CARBON MONOXIDE OVER COBALT CATALYSTS SUPPORTED ON ZrO_2

摘要

A series of Co/ZrO_2 catalysts were prepared in order to study the dispersion of active phase and the interaction between metal and support on the catalytic performance. It was found that the acidity of supports determined the active metal particle size. Results showed that the CO conversion increased with the accretion of metal dispersion. The product distributions were also determined by the metal particle size.
