Abstract
Production of Fischer–Tropsch catalysts is challenging because it involves controlling and optimizing multiple parameters in numerous technical steps. Here, we present C-supported nanometric Fe and Co catalysts synthesized by plasma spraying, a method that contracts catalyst production into a single step, in contrast to traditional multistep catalyst production by precipitation or impregnation. The catalysts were reduced in situ and then tested for Fischer–Tropsch synthesis in a gas–solid fixed-bed reactor at 230 °C and 30-bar pressure for 24 h. The performance of plasma-synthesized catalysts was superior at a gas hourly space velocity of 6,000 mL·g cat –1 ·h –1, with Fe/C catalysts showing about 30% CO conversion per pass while Co/C catalysts yielded about 20% CO conversion. Identical C-supported Co and Fe catalysts prepared by impregnation or precipitation gave CO conversions of about 7% under similar reaction conditions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
