The effect of the unpaired d-orbital electron number in Fe and Co catalysts on Fischer–Tropsch synthesis

Abstract

The unpaired d electron number is a significant parameter in designing highly active and selective catalysts. In this communication, we take Fe- and Co-based catalysts as examples. The unpaired d electron number was calculated, and the results show that it can be used as an indicator to select electron promoters for different catalysts.
