Low temperature and high pressure are thermodynamically more favorable conditions to achieve high conversion and high methanol selectivity in CO2 hydrogenation. However, low-temperature activity is generally very poor due to the sluggish kinetics, and thus, designin ...

The direct synthesis of methanol via the hydrogenation of CO2, if performed efficiently and selectively, is potentially a powerful technology for CO2 mitigation. Here, we develop an active and selective Cu-Zn/SiO2 catalyst for the hydrogenation ...

The quest for unveiling the nature of active sites for highly selective CO2 hydrogenation to methanol

Since the industrial revolution in the 1760s, the CO2 concentration in the atmosphere has been rising incessantly driving global warming closer to the point of no return. The world requires urgent actions to not only reduce CO2 emissions but also capture the CO2 for utilization t ...

Silica-Supported PdGa Nanoparticles: Metal Synergy for Highly Active and Selective CO2-to-CH3OH Hydrogenation (JACS Au (2021) 1:4 (450−458) DOI: 10.1021/jacsau.1c00021)

On page 452, column 1 (lines 12?23) reads: H2 and CO chemisorption show an uptake of 0.91 molH2 molPd?1 and 0.61 molCO molPd ?1, respectively (Table 1, Supporting Information S6). Considering a 1:1 CO/Pd stoichiometry,32 the dispersion from CO chemisorption (D?CO) equals 61%, ...

Cu/ZnO-based catalysts for methanol synthesis by COx hydrogenation are widely prepared via co-precipitation of sodium carbonates and nitrate salts, which eventually produces a large amount of wastewater from the washing step to remove sodium (Na+) and/or nitrate (NO3-) residue ...

Metal Synergy for Highly Active and Selective CO2-to-CH3OH Hydrogenation

The direct conversion of CO2to CH3OH represents an appealing strategy for the mitigation of anthropogenic CO2emissions. Here, we report that small, narrowly distributed alloyed PdGa nanoparticles, prepared via surface organometallic chemistry f ...

Space-resolved insights into high-pressure CO2 hydrogenation to methanol over Cu/ZnO/Al2O3

The reaction pathway of high-pressure CO2 hydrogenation over a Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst is investigated through the gradients of reactants/products concentration and catalyst temperature within the catalytic reactor. This study reveals that methan ...
