The article presents the results of studying the effect of the loading of active metal on the physicochemical properties of cobalt catalysts for the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis on a silicate support, promoted with aluminum. Using the BET, XRF, TPR, TPD-H2 methods, it has been established that the optimum cobalt content is 15‒18 wt. %.
