Adsorption of K and KO on Hägg iron carbide surfaces and its effect on the adsorption of CO: a DFT study
Includes bibliographic references. === The Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalysed by iron is a well-established process, used for the conversion of syngas (a mixture of CO and H₂ ) to long chain hydrocarbons. Potassium is typically added as a promoter in iron-based Fischer-Tropsch to improve activity,...
