Book Description
This research about the synthesis and characterization cobalt supported TiO2 catalyst for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) producing clean and best fuel. In variety of type of promoters, the effect is determined. The catalytic material will be prepared by impregnation of a mesoporous molecular sieve based on silica which is TiO2 as cobalt catalytic supporters and Zn/Zr/Mn as promoters for comparison purposes. All materials will be used characterizing by several physico-chemical techniques such as SEM, , TGA, FTIR. The catalytic and characterization results achieve give a great influence of mesoporous support porosity on the structure, reducibility and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalytic behavior of cobalt oxide species supported over these ordered materials. The size of supported cobalt oxide species formed during the calcination step increased with the average pore size (Dp) of the mesoporous support. Thus, the catalyst with larger Co oxide species located in wide pore silica showed to be easily reducible, more active and very selective toward the fuel fraction. The additional of promoters will be used to increase the performances of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.

Book Description
The work exposed in this manuscript concerns the study of the intrinsic activity and localization of active sites in cobalt and iron based catalysts using a combination of transient kinetic methods such as SSITKA, extended physicochemical characterization and catalytic tests under quasi steady state conditions. Promotion of iron catalysts with metals used for soldering (Bi and Pb) results a remarkable increase in the light olefin production rate with the possibility to conduct Fischer-Tropsch synthesis at very mild reaction conditions (low pressure) and even at atmospheric pressure. Transient kinetic experiments showed facilitation of CO dissociation in the presence of promoters by scavenging O atoms from iron carbide. Cobalt catalyst supported by mordenite zeolite presented higher value of SSITKA rate constant. Localization of cobalt active sites in bifunctional cobalt-zeolite catalysts has a major impact on the reaction rate and in particular on the hydrocarbon selectivity. A proximity between the cobalt active site and Bronsted active sites was found to be a key parameter to obtain higher selectivity and yield of isomerized hydrocarbons. SSITKA combined with catalyst characterization revealed that carbon deposition and cobalt nanoparticle agglomeration were responsible for the deactivation of silica supported cobalt catalysts. Catalyst rejuvenation in hydrogen lessened the amounts of deposited carbon species and partially released the most active sites of carbon monoxide dissociative adsorption and stronger sites of carbon monoxide reversible adsorption.

Book Description
The influence of promoter (Zn) on the physiochemical and catalytic properties of mesaporous silica Co/SBA-15 catalysts for the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis was investigated. SBA-15 was synthesized as support. The mesoporous silica Co-Zn/SBA-15 catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation method. Cobalt nitrate and zinc nitrate were used as sources of metal that are introduced onto catalysts with same cobalt loading (15 wt %) and different zinc loading (5 wt %, 10 wt%, 15 wt %) The characterization of catalysts was performed by using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results for FTIR were identification of Si-O-Si functional group indicating the absortion of silica inside SBA-15 support. Beside that, the identification of metal inside SBA-15 was determined by comparing the pure SBA-15 with the incorporated metal on SBA-15. For SEM analysis the image shows that the rope like domain aggregated to wheat-like microstructure. For this research, the characterization of the catalyst by selecting Zn as promoter have quiet similar characterization with noble metal that have been already investigate.

Book Description
This proceedings volume comprises the invited plenary lectures, contributed and poster papers presented at a symposium organised to mark the successful inauguration of the world's first commercial plant for production of gasoline from natural gas, based on the Mobil methanol-to-gasoline process. The objectives of the Symposium were to present both fundamental research and engineering aspects of the development and commercialization of gas-to-gasoline processes. These include steam reforming, methanol synthesis and methanol-to-gasoline. Possible alternative processes e.g. MOGD, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis of hydrocarbons, and the direct conversion of methane to higher hydrocarbons were also considered.The papers in this volume provide a valuable and extremely wide-ranging overview of current research into the various options for natural gas conversion, giving a detailed description of the gas-to-gasoline process and plant. Together, they represent a unique combination of fundamental surface chemistry catalyst characterization, reaction chemistry and engineering scale-up and commercialization.

Book Description
The research was about the synthesis of active and selective for syngas processing via Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) producing clean and best fuel. A series of 20 wt. % cobalt catalysts be prepared by impregnation of a mesoporous molecular sieve based on silica as 75 wt. % of cobalt catalytic supporters (SBA-15, TiO and CabO-Sil) with 5 wt. % Zn promoter for comparison purposes. All materials used characterizing by several analysis equipments which are SEM, TGA and FTIR. The characterization results achieve gave a great influence of mesoporous support porosity on the structure, reducibility of cobalt oxide species supported over the selected materials. Firstly, the experiment was started from the synthesis of SBA-15. TiO2 and Cab-O-Sil are commercialized support. Then, the silica as cobalt supporters were synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation method of using mixture of Cobalt (II) Nitrate and Zinc Nitrate Hexahydrate solution. Next, the prepared catalysts were calcined at 350°C for 6 h by increasing the temperature at a controlled heating rate of 2°C/min. The characterization of catalysts and catalyst studies was performed. The result from experiment was SBA-15 supporter shown the better result compared to other samples as the microscopic size captured by SEM equipment prove that SBA-15 had smoothest and smallest of mesoporous surface size. The result from FTIR showed that the peak at around 3,440 cm-1 have the hydroxyl groups and about 1,630 cm -12 is due to the bending vibrations of O-H bonds that the percentage reflectance of O-H bonds which indicates the SBA-15 can effectively restrain the loss of surface hydroxyl groups during calcinations. The peak around 1000-1200 cm1 can be assigned to the siloxane or Si-O-Si stretching bands; peak appears as a broad and strong peaking the sample. Lastly, TGA result showed that SBA-15 can help the catalyst samples restrained more water content in the evaporation process and had high thermal stability that can prolong life at high temperature and high pressure in the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. The new silica as cobalt supporter will be developed to enhance the performance of the best and clean fuel production. This research hopefully can be carried out successful in order to get the new invention for production of catalyst that will produce the best and clean fuel and to get rid of exceed cost of production but in the same quality of expensive product.
