Abstract—Gases from the gasification of oil shale contain CO and H₂; this fact makes it possible to use them
as a raw material in the synthesis of higher hydrocarbons. The possibility of obtaining a long distillate of hydro-
carbons on a cobalt catalyst was demonstrated using a CO–CO₂–H₂–N₂ model mixture of the gasification prod-
ucts of Leningrad shale as an example. In this case, to 83.8% selectivity for C₅₊ hydrocarbons with a low yield
of methane (7.3%) was reached. The resulting hydrocarbons were characterized by a chain growth probability
to 0.84.
