Tuning stability of titania-supported Fischer-Tropsch catalysts: Impact of surface area and noble metal promotion

Cobalt oxidation is a relevant deactivation pathway of titania-supported cobalt catalysts used in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS). To work towards more stable catalysts, we studied the effect of the surface area of the titania support and noble metal promotion on cobalt oxidation under simulated high conversion conditions.
