Synthesis gas is contacted with a suspended catalyst, which is circulated through the reaction zone. The catalyst consists of metals of the 4^th group with Fe and Cu on carriers of kieselguhr or bleaching earths mixed with oxides of Al or Zn. The reaction products are cooled, the condensate separated, and the CO₂ washed out of the residual gas, which is used for making synthesis gas.
