The present invention describes a catalyst applicable to the synthesis gas conversion process, said catalyst comprising: a) a support consisting of a solid solution containing at least a first aluminate element with a mixed spinel structure of formula MxM '(1-x ) Al2O4 / Al2O3.SiO2, x being between 0 and 1 excluded, or with a simple spinel structure of formula MAl2O4 / Al2O3 SiO2, said support being calcined in an at least partially oxidizing atmosphere, at a temperature of between 850 degree C and 900 degree Cb) an active phase deposited on said support which contains one or more metals of group VIII, chosen from cobalt, nickel, ruthenium or iron.The said catalyst is used in fixed bed or in suspension in a triphasic reactor for the synthesis of hydrocarbons from a mixture CO, H2. |
