Reaction modeling on the phosphorous-treated Ru/Co/Zr/SiO2 Fischer-Tropsch catalyst with the estimation of kinetic parameters and hydrocarbon distribution

► Cobalt-based Fischer-Tropsch (FT) catalyst. ► Ru/Co/Zr/SiO2 with different amounts of phosphorous. ► Optimal P wt.% enables the good dispersion of the cobalt species. ► Kinetics model is developed for the selected catalyst.
