The effects of alkali promoters namely potassium, copper, and manganese, on the performance of the bifunctional iron.low acidity ZSM-5 catalysts in the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis were studied. ZSM-5 with very high silica alumina ratio (SAR) of 280 was used to take advantage of its shape selectivity and suppressing the effect of alkali migration on zeolite cation exchange sites. One bi-functional iron base catalyst (FeZ), three single promoted (KFeZ, CuFeZ, MnFeZ) and four multiple promoted (CuKFeZ, CuMnFeZ, KMnFeZ, CuKMnFeZ) catalysts were synthesized by the incipient to wetness impregnation method. They were characterized by XRD, BET, TPR, TEM and TPD analyses methods and tested for their FT synthesis activities. Promoters had considerable impacts on the compositions and the hydrocarbon distributions of the FT synthesis products. Addition of promoters resulted in an increase of up to 8.5-56% and 20-743% in the synthesis of gasoline and diesel range hydrocarbons, respectively. Consequently, the production of the total liquid fuel (gasoline + diesel) also increased from 48% (base catalyst) to 64-79% (promoted catalysts). The highest gasoline range hydrocarbon production was obtained from MnFeZ and CuKMnFeZ (≈70%) while CuKMnFeZ produced a FT product having the highest total liquid fuel (≈79%).
