Addition of a small amount of heavy 1-olefin into a supercritical-phas
e or liquid-phase FT reaction medium could significantly promote the c
arbon-chain growth and greatly enhance the selectivity of waxy product
s, with increased CO conversion while suppressing methane selectivity.
The phenomenon was not observed in the gas-phase reaction.
