Abstract | Some kinetic parameters of Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) were determined in the presence of a granular cobalt/zeolite catalyst. Usually, kinetic studies of granular catalysts are considered to be complicated by external and internal diffusion. We managed to obtain a catalyst with a special structure of the active surface, where sites active in FTS are isolated from each other due to the environment of inactive spinel CoAl 2 O 4 and inter-site transport is provided by an extensive intragranular graphitic network serving simultaneously as a heat-conductive medium. As a result, FTS proceeded in the kinetic region. It was found that the reaction kinetics obey the Arrhenius law; whereas, the activation energy is different in different temperature ranges, i.e., 118.2 kJ/mol in the range of 180–210 °C, and 173.6 kJ/mol in the range of 232–243 °C. This behavior is determined by the presence of zeolite, which becomes active in the secondary transformations of FTS products at temperatures beyond 210 °C. |
