Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to methanol, and particularly to a catalyst for hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to methanol, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] CO2 is the main component of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Its generation comes from the combustion of a large amount of fossil fuels and has led to the increasingly deepening global climate change in the past few decades. Human activities emit nearly 40 billion tons of CO2 into the atmosphere every year. The CO2 content in the atmosphere reached 407 ppm in 2019, increasing by 20% in the past 40 years. Undoubtedly, reducing CO2 emissions has become an urgent issue. If CO2 can be converted into chemical raw materials through renewable energy, it can not only solve the problem of excessive CO2 emissions, but also make CO2 a new carbon source to replace traditional fossil fuels.

[0003] Methanol is an important chemical intermediate raw material and can be used as a fuel for internal combustion engines and fuel cells. With the gradual reduction of non-renewable energy, methanol, as an alternative chemical raw material, can synthesize various chemicals and fuels such as gasoline. The technology of hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to methanol can not only realize the resource conversion of carbon dioxide, help solve the problem of storage of renewable energy, but also realize carbon dioxide emission reduction and slow down ecological deterioration. Therefore, the hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol is regarded as an effective way for large-scale resource utilization of CO2. However, due to the chemical inertness of CO2, its efficient conversion to methanol is still extremely challenging. When traditional Cu-ZnO catalysts are applied to the hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol, the prominent problems are the difficulty in activating CO2 and the low selectivity of methanol.

[0004] Currently, the hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol mainly uses supported metal or metal oxide catalysts. For example, the Catalysis Research Institute of Zhejiang University prepared a Cu / Mn / Al system catalyst by the co-current coprecipitation method. The total conversion rate of CO2 was 15.8%, the selectivity of methanol was 20.8%, and the single-pass yield of methanol was 4.3%. For example, Xu Yong et al. from East China University of Science and Technology studied the hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol on a Cu-ZnO-Al2O3 catalyst, and the selectivity of methanol was 12.57%; the conversion rate of CO2 on a Cu-ZnO binary catalyst with CO2 and H2 was 18.71%, and the selectivity of methanol was 9.87%. And such catalysts have been widely studied in the CO2 hydrogenation reaction in inventions such as CN103272607A, CN101983765A, CN102000578A, CN102302934A, etc.

[0005] However, due to their high activity in the reverse water gas shift (RWGS), they have a low methanol selectivity and lack stability due to the water-induced sintering of the active phase. In recent years, transition metal-modified Cu-Zn materials have also been widely studied. For example, CuZnGa-hydrotalcite achieved a methanol yield of 0.59 kg CH3OH / Lcat·h at a CO2 conversion rate of 20%, but the methanol selectivity was only about 50% (ACS Catal. 2018, 8, 4390-4401). The methanol selectivity of the Pd / CeO2 catalyst loaded with noble metals reached 92%, but the CO2 conversion rate was not ideal (J. Catal., 1994, 150, 217-220).

[0006] Therefore, designing a catalyst that can operate stably under reaction conditions and has a high CO2 conversion rate and methanol selectivity is an urgent problem for the industrial application of CO2 hydrogenation to methanol.

[0007] In view of this, the present invention is specifically proposed. Summary of the Invention
