This review analyzes the literature from the 80’s to the beginning of 2020 and covers the use of carbon materials as supports for cobalt-based catalysts used in the Fischer Tropsch reaction. The article is composed of two sections. The first one details the reactivity of carbon supported cobalt catalysts with a particular focus on: i) reaction mechanisms and conditions, ii) effect of cobalt particle size, iii) confinement effects, iv) hydrogen spillover, and v) deactivation mechanisms. In the second part, the different methods of Co/C catalyst preparation are presented, and the influence of several parameters such as the type of supports and its functionalization, the metal loading or the catalyst activation on the catalytic performances is discussed. This work also provides some perspectives in the field.

这篇综述分析了80年代至2020年初的文献，并涵盖了碳材料作为费托反应中使用的钴基催化剂的载体的用途。本文由两部分组成。第一个详细介绍了碳载钴催化剂的反应性，特别着重于：i）反应机理和条件，ii）钴粒度的影响，iii）限制作用，iv）氢溢出，和v）失活机理。在第二部分中，介绍了Co / C催化剂的不同制备方法，并讨论了载体类型及其功能化，金属负载量或催化剂活化等几个参数对催化性能的影响。这项工作还提供了该领域的一些观点。
