 1846.    FUJIMURA, K.  Catalytic Reduction of Carbon Monoxide at Ordinary Pressure.  VIII.  Iron-Copper Catalyst.  Jour. Soc. Chem. Ind. (Japan), vol. 34, suppl., 1931, pp. 136-138; Sci. Papers Inst. Phys. Chem. Research (Tokyo), vol. 29, 1936, pp. 280-284; Chem. Abs., vol. 25, 1931, p. 4173.

        Three catalysts in which the ratio of Fe to Cu was 5:1, 3:1 and 1:2 were studied in the formation of hydrocarbons from water gas at about 275° and atmospheric pressure.  The 1^st catalyst was most reactive, and the other 2 had approximately the same reactivity.  About 3.3 cm.³ of liquid hydrocarbon was produced from 140 l. of gas with each catalyst.
