Pellets which are formed by extruding and cutting may be squashed in the latter operation. Squashing is reduced by passing a strand of extruded material downwardly under the influence of gravity and cutting the strand horizontally with a blade, preferably supporting the strand against the cutting blade by blowing gas against it when cutting.

Apparatus and method for forming pellets

A process for reacting carbon monoxide with steam at temperatures below 300.degree.C. over a catalyst comprising the product of reducing partly the co-precipitated oxides of copper and zinc and at least one further metal selected from the metals of Groups II to V of the Periodic Table whose oxides are usable as catalyst supports.
