High pressure Water Gas Shift performance over a commercial non-sulfide CoMo catalyst using industrial coal-derived syngas

► High pressure bench scale Water Gas Shift performance. ► Commercial non-sulfide CoMo catalyst and industrial coal-derived gas feed. ► Surprisingly high CO conversion, comparable to that obtained with the sulfide catalyst. ► CO conversion dependent on reaction temperature and space velocity. ► H2 selectivity enhanced by H2O/CO.
