Journal ArticleDOI

Catalytic synthesis of methanol from COH2: I. Phase composition, electronic properties, and activities of the Cu/ZnO/M2O3 catalysts

TL;DR: In this article, the X-ray diffraction, optical, and XPS-Auger studies are presented that describe the formation, electronic structure, and surface composition of low pressure methanol synthesis catalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Catalytic synthesis of methanol from COH2: IV. The effects of carbon dioxide

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of carbon dioxide on the catalytic synthesis of methanol over the copper-zinc oxide catalysts were investigated for CO2/CO/H2 ratios between 0/30/70 and 30/0/70.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advances in catalytic synthesis and utilization of higher alcohols

TL;DR: In this article, a dual-catalyst-bed reaction engine was used for gas phase conversion and a slurry phase reaction system was employed to increase the reaction rate of the exothermic synthesis reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Higher alcohol and oxygenate synthesis over cesium-doped Cu/ZnO catalysts

TL;DR: In this paper, a 13C-NMR study of the C2C4 products formed over Cu ZnO and 0.4 mol% Cs/Cu/ZnO catalysts was performed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Catalytic synthesis of methanol from COH2: II. Electron microscopy (TEM, STEM, microdiffraction, and energy dispersive analysis) of the CuZnO and Cu/ZnO/Cr2O3 catalysts

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used transmission electron microscopy to characterize the dispersions of CuO, ZnO, and Cr/sub 2/O/sub 3/ in methanol synthesis catalysts.
