Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled to time of flight mass spectrometry (GC × GC-TOFMS) was applied to evaluate the CO2 effect on distribution of n-alkanes, branched alkanes, alkenes and oxygen-containing compounds in Fischer-Tropsch products. GC × GC-TOFMS was able to resolve the unresolved compounds observed in conventional GC.
