A method of supporting a hydrocarbon synthesis catalyst material comprising a catalytically active metal and a carrier material on a metallic substrate in which the catalyst material is applied to the substrate and is heated to form a catalyst material layer fixed to the substrate with cracks having sub-millimeter widths formed in the layer creating domains with the range of the relative sizes of the domains being approximately 1:5.

Process for hydrocarbon synthesis

The present invention relates to a process for the catalytic partial oxidation of a hydrocarbonaceous feedstock, which process consists of contacting a feed consisting of the hydrocarbonaceous feedstock and an oxygen-containing gas with a catalyst having metals of Group VIII of the Periodic Table of Elements, wherein the Group VIII metals are at least rhodium and iridium in intimate association with each other.

Catalytic partial oxidation with a rhodium-iridium alloy catalyst

A catalyst comprising a catalytically active metal, selected from Ru, Rh, Os and Ir, associated with at least one inorganic metal cation or precursor thereof, wherein the inorganic metal cation or precursor thereof is present in intimate association supported on or with the catalytically active metal, a process for the preparation of the catalyst, and a process for the preparation of carbon monoxide and/or hydrogen from a hydrocarbonaceous feedstock using the catalyst.

Evacuation of hydrogen and carbon monoxide from a hydrocarbonaceous feedstock

The present invention relates to a catalyst for use in a process for the preparation of hydrocarbons comprising cobalt and manganese and/or vanadium, supported on a carrier, wherein the cobalt:(manganese+vanadium) atomic ratio is at least 12:1. Preferably, the cobalt:(manganese+vanadium) atomic ratio is at most 1500:1. The invention further relates to a process for the preparation of hydrocarbons which comprises contacting a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide at elevated temperature and pressure with a catalyst as described hereinbefore. Typically, at least part of the cobalt is present in the metallic state.
