The invention provides a
copper-based
methanol synthesis catalyst and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises: mixing the
copper-
zinc mixed solution and the first precipitant
aqueous solution in parallel, controlling the pH to be 7-8, and standing for aging to form a
slurry A ; Add the second precipitant
aqueous solution to the soluble aluminum salt
aqueous solution, control the pH to 7-8, and the temperature to 40-50°C, leave it to age to obtain
slurry B; mix
slurry A and slurry B, filter, and pass through the
solid phase Washing,
drying,
roasting, molding treatment, that is, the
copper-based
methanol synthesis catalyst is obtained. The above preparation method has simple steps, strong
controllability, wide sources of raw materials, and easy industrialization. The preparation method of the present invention can obtain a copper-based
methanol synthesis catalyst with high catalytic activity and
thermal stability, which is suitable for the synthesis of methanol containing CO, CO2, H2 The synthesis gas can produce methanol under the condition of low temperature and low pressure, and the catalyst of the invention does not need to be reduced before use, which is convenient for large-scale popularization and application.
