摘要
N-doped carbon nanotubes (NCNTs) were used as the support for a Co catalyst (Co/A-NCNTs). After acid treatment, the bamboo-like structure of the NCNTs disappeared and more defects were formed on the surface of the NCNTs; however there was little change in the inner diameter and N content of the nanotubes. This resulted in an improved dispersion of Co inside the cavities of the NCNTs. The Co/A-NCNT catalyst was compared with Co supported on acid treated CNTs, and the Co/A-NCNT catalyst had a smaller surface area and for Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis, it had a higher CO conversion with producing a narrower distribution of low carbon number hydrocarbons. The high Co dispersion in the Co/A-NCNTs is the main reason for the improved FT synthesis performance. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
