This study focused on the Fischer-Tropsch activity and selectivity of transition metal (iron, molybdenum and tungsten) carbides. The carbide catalysts were prepared by a temperature programmed method. The properties of the materials were characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), BET measurements and temperature programmed desorption of carbon monoxide (CO-TPD). The performance of the materials was tested in a Berty reactor. A reduced, precipitated iron oxide catalyst was used as a reference catalyst. 2015-11-08T05:02:31Z 2015-11-08T05:02:31Z 2007 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/14729 eng application/pdf Department of Chemical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
