12 Claims

1. A supported Co—Mn Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst comprising at least 2.5 wt % of manganese, on an elemental basis, based on the total weight of the supported synthesis catalyst, wherein the support material of the supported Co-Mn Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst comprises a material selected from titania, zinc oxide, zirconia, and ceria, and wherein the synthesis catalyst comprises Co₃O₄crystallites having a particle size of less than 60 Angstroms, wherein the Co₃O₄crystallite particle sizes are determined by X-ray diffraction.
