Abstract :
The addition of an alcohol to a syngas feed to an alkali-free iron catalyst has an influence upon both catalytic activity and hydrocarbon product distribution within each carbon number.Furthermore,it appears that adding alkali to an iron catalyst altivity and product distrbution in the same direction as adding an alcohol to the syngas feed.It is not possible to decide whether these changes are caused by alcohol acting to physically block adsorption sites or whether the changes are effected
