 1847.    --------------.  [FUJIMURA, K.]  Catalytic Reduction of Carbon Monoxide at Ordinary Pressure.  IX.  Additional Tests With a Co-Cu-MgO Catalyst.  Jour. Soc. Chem. Ind. (Japan), vol. 34, suppl. 7, 1931, pp. 227-229; Chem. Abs., vol. 25, 1931, p. 5341.

        Tests were made to determine the relation between catalyst activity and volume; a pumice support is used in 1 case and a light-sugar charcoal support in the other.  With the first catalyst the gas contraction was about 40%, and 38.4-46.6 cm.3 of oil was produced from 68.7-75.3 l. of gas, solid paraffin appearing in 1 case.  With the voluminous catalyst the gas contractions were 60 and 34.5%, and the oil yields 36.6 and 27.0 cm.3 from 75.1 and 68.7 l. of gas respectively.
