Supported Iron and Cobalt Nanoparticles for Fischer Tropsch Catalysis Krijn P. de Jong Inorganic Chemistry and Catalysis, Debye Institute for Nanomaterials ScienceUtrecht University, The Netherlands; k.p.dejong@uu.nlThroughout his career about one third of the papers co-authored by Burtron Davis involved Fischer Tropsch (FT) catalysis. Both iron and cobalt FT catalysts have been studied extensively by him and his group and major contributions are apparent. In this talk we intend to summarize some recent work on supported iron and cobalt catalysts for FT catalysis. The impact of individual [1] properties  (composition, size, interaction with the support) as well as collective [2] properties (spatial distribution, clustering) of iron and cobalt nanoparticles on catalyst performance will be discussed.References:H.M.
