Abstract
The invention relates to a synthesis process for hydrocarbons using a mixture containing carbon monoxide and hydrogen, called Fischer-Tropsch synthesis in the presence of a catalyst comprising a support, at least one group VIII metal said process being characterized in that at least 80% of the group VIII metallic particles of the catalyst have a size comprised between D−(D.0.2) and D+(D.0.2), where D represents the average size of the metallic particles. The process can be used in a fixed-bed reactor of the catalyst or in a reactor operating in liquid phase of the catalyst.
