Active Sites and Structure−Activity Relationships of Copper-Based Catalysts for Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation to Methanol

TL;DR: In this paper, the active sites and structure-activity relationships for methanol synthesis from a stoichiometric mixture of CO2 and H2 were investigated for a series of coprecipitated Cu-based catalysts with temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Xray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and N2O decomposition.

Handbook of Heterogeneous Catalysis

TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-modelling system that automates the very labor-intensive and therefore time-heavy and therefore expensive and expensive process of characterization and activation of Solid Catalysts.

Methanol–steam reforming on Cu/ZnO/Al2O3. Part 1: the reaction network

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that in order to explain the complete range of observed product compositions, rate expressions for all three reactions (methanol-steam reforming, water-gas shift and methanol decomposition) must be included in the kinetic analysis and variations in the selectivity and activity of the catalyst indicate that the decomposition reaction occurs on a different type of active site than the other two reactions.

Methanol reforming for fuel-cell applications: development of zirconia-containing Cu–Zn–Al catalysts

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of different copper-containing catalysts are described and it is shown that of these sequentially precipitated Cu/ZnO/ZrO 2 /Al 2 O 3 materials have the highest activities and stabilities for the steam reforming reaction.

The measurement of copper surface areas by reactive frontal chromatography

TL;DR: In this paper, a reactive frontal chromatography (reactive frontal Chromatography) was proposed to evaluate copper areas in oxide-supported copper catalysts in general, where the N2O decomposes upon adsorption yielding N2 in the gas phase, the oxygen being chemisorbed on the surface.

Production of hydrogen from methanol over Cu/ZnO catalysts promoted by ZrO2 and Al2O3

TL;DR: In particular, the extent of methanol and/or H2 combustion at differential O2 conversion is strongly dependent on the ease of copper oxidation in the catalyst and the redox properties of the catalyst appear to play a key role in determining the pathway for H2 production as discussed by the authors.
