The possibility to use the zinc-copper catalyst NIAP-06-06 for steam conversion of CO in the synthesis of methanol was explored. The catalyst was characterized by means of TPR H2, XRD and SEM methods and tested in the methanol synthesis in flow and circulation modes at a pressure of 5.0 MPa and gas hourly space velocity of 3000 h–1 over a temperature range of 220–260 °С. The catalyst was shown to be highly active and selective toward the methanol synthesis from a gas with the H2 /СО ratio 3.9, which is obtained by steam conversion of methane. The use of tubular catalytic reactors connected in series in the flow-circulation mode makes it possible to convert more than 70 % of CO and obtain crude methanol with the concentration of 95 %. In the circulation mode, a methanol output of 427.7 kg/(m3 cat·h) was achieved on the catalyst.

The property of CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 catalysts for methanol synthesis was investigated by means of XRD, H2-TPR and DTG. The results show that the thermal activity of the self-made CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst is better than the commercial catalyst C302 and displayed stable property after 180h application. The catalyst calcinated revealed strong interaction between CuO and ZnO, and the dispersion of CuO crystal particular was uniform. There was a small amount of carbon deposition on the surface of CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst after synthesis reaction. For synthesis of methanol with self-made catalyst in fixed reactor from the analog components of reformed bluecoke furnace gas, the space time yield and selectivity of coarse methanol respectively reached 1.5451 g·g-1·h-1 and 99.6143% under the conditions of temperature of 240°C, pressure of 5.5MPa and space velocity of 12000h-1.

In the context of utilization of carbon dioxide emissions, a study of the CO2 conversion to methanol and dimethyl ether (DME) under flowcirculation conditions, when a part of converted gas returns to the reactor, was carried out. Experimental data on the synthesis of methanol (commercial catalyst Megamax 507) and direct synthesis of DME (Megamax 507/commercial zeolite ZVM, weight ratio 1/1) are reported. In the methanol synthesis from syngas, vol.%: H2 – 76.6, CO2 – 19.8, N2 – 3.6 performed at 240–260 °C and pressure 5.3 MPa, a high conversion of CO2 was reached: 84–99.6% at a low selectivity of the side reaction (CO synthesis, not higher than 4.7 %). The maximum specific yield of methanol at 260 °C was 1.24 kg(kgcat·h)–1. Special-purpose experiments demonstrated that the methanol synthesis is accompanied by a small heating (up to 10 °C) at the catalyst bed inlet, which testifies to polytropicity of the reactor. In the synthesis of DME, the DME yield referred to bifunctional catalyst was within 0.16–0.33 kg(kgcat·h)–1 depending on the conditions. Therewith, the conversion of methanol to DME was not lower than 42 %, the conversion of CO2 was within 79–96 %, and the DME synthesis proceeded under nearly isothermal conditions.

According to the components of bluecoke furnace gas by rich oxygen carbonization, the methane conversion and methanol synthesis processes with simulation mix gas were separately researched using the self-made catalysts. The results show that the conversion rate of methane could achieve about 95% under the conditions of temperature of 800°C, space velocity of 9000h-1 and the ratio of water to hydrocarbon of about 3.0 with self-made Ni/γ-Al2O3 catalyst. For synthesis of methanol with self-made CuO-ZnO-Al2O3 catalyst in fixed reactor from the reformed gas, the space time yield and selectivity of coarse methanol respectively reached 1.5451g•g-1•h-1 and 99.6143% under the conditions of temperature of 240°C, pressure of 5.5MPa and space velocity of 12000h-1.

CuFe-containing catalysts with different copper oxide content were prepared by fusion of metal salts. The obtained catalyst showed high activity in the hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol (FA) in the batch reactor in the presence of isopropanol as a solvent at a temperature of 100 °C and a hydrogen pressure of 6.0 MPa. The yield of FA and furfural conversion are 97% and 98%, respectively. In the solvent-free reaction in the flow-type reactor; the most active catalyst Cu20Fe66Al14 leads to the 96% formation of FA with 100% conversion of furfural at liquid hourly space velocity (LHSV) = 1 h−1; 160 °C and a hydrogen pressure of 5.0 MPa during 30 h. According to the X-ray diffraction (XRD) method, the active component of the spent and fresh Cu20Fe66Al14 catalyst is the same and is represented by metallic copper and Fe3O4-type spinel. Using different methods, the formation of active sites was investigated.
