The invention discloses a device and a method for producing normal propyl alcohol by utilizing carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is adopted as a raw material; the device comprises a raw material mixing unit, a buffer unit, a reaction unit, a waste heat recovery unit, a rapid cooling unit, a compression unit, a separation unit, a PSA unit, a normal propanal production unit and a normal propyl alcohol production unit; the carbon dioxide is utilized for preparing ethylene, carbon monoxide and hydrogen, and the products are used as material supply for downstream normal propanal and normal propyl alcohol production; exhaust gas produced by the process is used as a fuel for evaporate steam, so that not only is the energy consumption requirement of the device met, but also the steam resource is saved, the maximum cyclic utilization of energy is realized, the pollutant emission is reduced, and the environment protection requirement is met; the follow-up process provides the raw material hydrogen for the previous process, so that the conversion rate of the materials is improved, the atmosphere pollution and the energy waste are avoided; the source problem of ethylene, hydrogen and carbon monoxide raw materials for a downstream device is solved, the product diversification of the enterprise is perfected, and the core competence of the enterprise is improved.
