Abstract

Decomposition of ammonia over silica-supported cobalt catalysts for Fischer–Tropsch synthesis has been studied at a pressure of 0.1 MPa, a gas hourly space velocity in the range of 1000–6000 h–1, and a temperature in the range of 400–650°C in a tubular fixed bed reactor in a flow-through mode. It was found that silica-supported cobalt catalysts for hydrocarbons synthesis via the Fischer–Tropsch protocol also exhibit high activity in ammonia decomposition. Both the activity and hydrogen performance decrease in the series: Co-Ru/SiO2 > Co-Al2O3/SiO2 > Ru/SiO2 > Co-Al2O3/SiO2(35%)/ZSM-5(30%)/Al2O3(35%). The relatively low values of effective activation energies estimated for all catalysts indicate that the reaction can proceed with high conversion at moderate temperatures.
