In future energy supply systems, power-to-X (PtX) concepts can be incorporated as a solution for long-term energy storage of fluctuating renewable energy in form of high energy molecules, such as hydrogen, methane, or liquid hydrocarbons. One possibility for the production of such molecules is the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis, where hydrogen from water electrolysis reacts with CO from renewable sources to form a wide spectrum of aliphatic hydrocarbons (see R1 -R2). 𝑛 CO + (2𝑛 + 1)
