Synthesis gas derived from coal, natural gas and biomass can be selectively converted into various fuels and chemicals such as aromatics via the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) reaction in which iron- and cobalt-based catalysts are most widely used.
The iron-based FTS catalyst prepared by co-precipitation was combined with ZSM-5 zeolite to reach high selectivity of aromatics.The effect of the Si/Al ratio and post-treatment conditions on the ZSM-5 zeolites were investigated. Specific morphologic ZSM-5 zeolites synthesized by hydrothermal reaction were also examined.
