    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to compositions and processes for producing Fischer-Tropsch catalysts. In particular, the disclosure provides for a process for producing a product composition comprising alcohols and liquid hydrocarbons via a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reaction, the process comprising: contacting a mixture of hydrogen and a gaseous carbon oxide that is carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide or a combination thereof and an olefin co-feed with a supported cobalt-manganese Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst to provide the product composition; wherein the olefin co-feed comprises at least one C2-C14 olefin and is present in an amount in the range of 0.001 wt % to 40 wt % relative to the total amount of hydrogen, the gaseous carbon oxide and olefin; wherein a weight ratio of manganese to cobalt in the catalyst is at least 0.05 on an elemental basis.
