Abstract
A method of producing a catalyst comprising: mixing catalytic particles and a solvent, thereby forming a mixture; performing a size distribution analysis on the mixture to determine a size distribution profile; repeating the mixing of the catalytic particles and the solvent in the mixture if the size distribution profile is below a threshold; centrifuging the mixture if the size distribution profile is at or above the threshold, thereby forming a supernate and a precipitate, wherein the supernate comprises a dispersion including the catalytic particles and the solvent; decanting the mixture, separating the supernate from the precipitate; determining the particle content of the separated supernate; determining a volume of the dispersion to be applied to a catalyst support based on one or more properties of the catalyst support; and impregnating the catalyst support with the catalytic particles in the dispersion by applying the volume of the dispersion to the catalyst support.
