This study demonstrates the effect of operating conditions (Red-GHSV, inlet H2/CO, Oprat-GHSV) and the effect of Fe-Co-Ce nanocatalyst support. A statistical model using the response surface methodology (RSM) was applied with the target of achieving higher olefins selectivity in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, which indicates the interaction effects of factors. The conditions under which three objectives optimization for maximizing olefins and minimizing paraffins and methane were determined. Synthesized nanocatalysts with various supports were characterized by XRD, SEM and TPR techniques
