Abstrakt: The influence of the nature of the oxide support on selectivity of Fe catalysts in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis at atmospheric pressure has been studied. It was found that selectivity towards lower olefins increases with increasing basicity of the oxide support. It is suggested that this effect is due to participation of basic oxide sites in hydrogen-atom abstraction from the surface metal-alkyl complex.
