Description

<p>Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) synthesis remains the core technology for producing non-petroleum-based fuels. The product selectivity of F-T synthesis has been restricted by the Anderson-Schulz-Flory (ASF) distribution. New designs of F-T catalysts and reaction pathways that can break these selectivity limitations are extremely important. Notable developments in F-T applications for producing unconventional F-T products such as light olefins (C2-C4), gasoline (C5-C11), jet fuel (C8-C16) and oxygenated organic compounds have been made. Synthesis of these high-value hydrocarbons demands the design of new F-T catalysts that can effectively tune the product distribution beyond the limits of the ASF distribution. Several reaction pathways and high-efficiency F-T catalysts with exceptional catalytic performances have been proposed. This review describes significant advances in terms of rational design of catalysts, particularly for the F-T synthesis of high-demand hydrocarbons. Our perspectives regarding the key factors for enhancing catalytic performances are discussed to open new approaches for future projects.</p>
