Abstract

Literature about water addition over AB2O4 spinel-supported cobalt CO hydrogenation catalysts is sparse. A comparative water addition experiment was conducted over Co/ZnAl2O4·Al2O3 catalyst. Water addition may cause lower C1 (i.e., CH4) hydrocarbon distribution, lower C2–C4 hydrocarbon distribution, higher C5+ hydrocarbon distribution and higher C2–C4 olefin/paraffin ratio than the control test without water addition. Possibly, as a product of Fischer–Tropsch synthesis, water might have an autocatalytic effect for the FTS process to generate longer chain hydrocarbons via its facilitation of C–C coupling. The Co/ZnAl2O4·Al2O3 catalyst exhibits good resistance against steam sintering.
