Abstract
"> The influence of SiO2 and Al2O3 binders on the catalyst performance and productsselectivity of the precipitated Fe-Cu-K catalyst physically mixtured with HZSM-5 wasstudied in a fixed bed tubular reactor. The iron catalyst was mixed with HZSM-5 zeoliteand shaped to cylinders form by alumina and or silica as a binder for increasing themechanical strength of bifunctional catalyst. The catalyst activity was tested underreaction condition, P=17 bar, T=290 oC , H2/CO=1 and GHSV= 3.07 NL.h-1.g.Fe-1.The results showed that the catalyst activity for Fischer – Tropsch and water gas shiftreactions for silica binders is lower than alumina and secondary reactions in thepresence of alumina is higher.
