A catalyst and slurry reactor Fischer-Tropsch conversion process utilizing novel catalysts comprising cobalt promoted with molybdenum or molybdenum and zirconium on a small diameter inorganic oxide support. The catalysts have been found to be highly selective for production of liquid hydrocarbons while minimizing production of less desirable oxygen-containing products such as alcohols. The preferred catalysts contain from about 5% to 50% cobalt and from about 0.1% to 10% molybdenum or molybdenum and zirconium.

A slurry reactor process useful for the conversion, at reaction conditions, of synthesis gas to hydrocarbons wherein the selectivity to C5 plus hydrocarbons is above 80% in a slurry reaction process which comprises reacting a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide in molar ratio of about 2.5:1 to 1

A slurry reactor process useful for the conversion, at reaction conditions, of synthesis gas to hydrocarbons wherein the selectivity to C5 plus hydrocarbons is above 80% in a slurry reaction process which comprises reacting a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide in molar ratio of about 2.5:1 to 1.5:1 at a temperature in the range of about 190°to 300°C.; a reactor pressure in the range of about 50 to 650 psig; a space velocity of about 100 to 15000 volumes of gaseous feed (at standard temperature and pressure) per volume of dry catalyst in the slurry per hour, with a catalyst comprised of cobalt and zirconium that has been deposited on an alumina support by impregnation from an aqueous solution of salts of the cobalt and zirconium, respectively, the catalyst containing from about 5% to 35% cobalt and from about 0.1% to 10% zirconium based on the total weight of the catalyst and the alumina support having an initial particle size in the range of from about 5 to 250 microns in the mixture and recovering the product.
