Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS), which provides a green route to the production of clean fuels and fine chemicals, represents some significant applications of catalytic materials and processes in the chemical industry. FTS reactions show a diversity of mechanisms, involve various catalytic materials, and offer options for continuous investigation. Cobalt-based catalysts have been widely used for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis both in academia and in industry. This mini-review will focus on relevant research achievements in cobalt-based FTS catalysts by our group in the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP). Specific contents will include the development of Co/CoC-based nano-catalysts (i) for the highly selective synthesis of clean fuels over Co-based catalysts supported by carbon materials and (ii) for the synthesis of linear α-alcohols and olefins over Co-CoC-based catalysts supported by carbon materials. The direct synthesis of linear α-alcohols from syngas using a Co-CoC/AC catalyst is highlighted. The innovative work of FTS using activated carbon (AC)-supported Co/CoC-based nano-catalysts could bring some insight into new FTS catalyst designs.
费托合成（FTS）为清洁燃料和精细化学品的生产提供了一条绿色途径，代表了催化材料和工艺在化学工业中的一些重要应用。费托合成反应呈现出多种机理，涉及各种催化材料，并为持续研究提供了多种选择。钴基催化剂在学术界和工业界都已广泛用于费托合成。本综述将聚焦于我们大连化学物理研究所（DICP）团队在钴基费托合成催化剂方面的相关研究成果。具体内容将包括基于Co/CoC的纳米催化剂的开发：（i）用于在碳材料负载的钴基催化剂上高选择性地合成清洁燃料；（ii）用于在碳材料负载的Co-CoC基催化剂上合成线性α-醇和烯烃。重点介绍了使用Co-CoC/AC催化剂由合成气直接合成线性α-醇的方法。使用活性炭（AC）负载的Co/CoC基纳米催化剂进行费托合成的创新性工作可为新型费托合成催化剂的设计提供一些思路。
