Relations of the Gas Composition to the Working Temperature and to the Degree of Saturation of the Benzine Respectively. Jour. Soc. Chem. Ind. (Japan), vol. 37, suppl., 1933, pp. 711-716; Sci.

Ni-Mn-Al2O3 catalyst is used. With the ratio of CO:H2 in the initial gas above 1:2.0-1:2.1 the yield of benzine and the reaction velocity can be increased by raising the temperature. No CH4 is formed if the temperature is kept below 200°-210°. if the H2 content of the initial gas is increased, the temperature must be lowered to suppress the CH4-synthesis reaction. There is a linear relationship between the H2 content of the outlet gas and the I number of the benzine. The higher the H2 content, the greater the saturation of the benzine. The volatility of the benzine increases with higher working temperatures.
