摘要
The Fischer-Tropsch reaction has been studied over Co(0001) in the temperature range between 220 and 300-degrees-C at 1 bar total pressure and an H2:CO ratio of 2:1. It was found that the activation energies for methane, ethane and propane formation are equal, which suggests similar rate determining steps. We propose that alpha-hydrogenation of a C(n)H2n+1 surface species is rate limiting. Olefins are formed via beta-dehydrogenation of the same species. The olefins take part in a consecutive reaction and are finally converted to paraffins. The product distribution was found to follow Schulz-Flory kinetics with a chain growth probability of 0.2 at 250-degrees-C. Post-reaction spectroscopy with EELS and Auger indicated the presence of CO and CH(x) (x = 1,2,3) fragments on the surface.
