Synthesis And Characterization Of Spherical Model Co-Fe Nanocatalyst

Iron and Cobalt are the commonly used catalysts for the Fischer-Tropsch reaction in the industries. This project explores the potential of combining Iron and Cobalt as a bimetallic catalyst for the Ficher-Tropsch reaction. This report discusses the synthesis and characterization of spherical model C...
