Project DescriptionCatalysts provide a vital route to enabling new chemical reactions and reducing the energy requirements of a huge range of industrial processes. The Fischer-Tropsch (FT) process is a catalytic reaction which produces hydrocarbon fuel from a variety of feedstocks including obtained environmentally sustainable sources such as biomass and municipal…
