Hydrothermal stability of modified alumina-based catalyst supports under simulated high-conversion Fischer–Tropsch synthesis conditions

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Exposure to harsh hydrothermal conditions resulted in the formation of higher amounts of γ-AlOOH for the unmodified Al 2 O 3 support (up to 49 wt%) when compared to the more stable modified Al 2 O 3 supports (forming up to 13.0 wt%).
