Abstract: A method for promoting the supported catalysts using noble metal nanoparticles. Different noble metal precursors are preferentially deposited onto the supported metal catalysts through Chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and compositions so produced. Further, the promoted catalyst is used for CO and CO2 hydrogenation reactions, increasing the reaction conversion, C5+ compounds selectivity and chain growth probability. The active phase of catalyst can be either cobalt oxide, nickel oxide or their reduced format (Co0 or Ni0), and the noble metal is preferably Ruthenium.
