Popis: | ACS catalysis 12, 7609 - 7621 (2022). doi:10.1021/acscatal.2c00905 Carbide formation on iron-based catalysts is an integral and, arguably, the most important part of the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis process, converting CO and H2 into synthetic fuels and numerous valuable chemicals. Here, we report an in situ surface-sensitive study of the effect of pressure, temperature, time, and gas feed composition on the growth dynamics of two distinct iron–carbon phases with the octahedral and trigonal prismatic coordination of carbon sites on an Fe(110) single crystal acting as a model catalyst. Using a combination of state-of-the-art X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy at an unprecedentedly high pressure, high-energy surface X-ray diffraction, mass spectrometry, and theoretical calculations, we reveal the details of iron surface carburization and product formation under semirealistic conditions. We provide a detailed insight into the state of the catalyst’s surface in relation to the reaction. Published by ACS, Washington, DC |
