Preparation and Characterization of Cu/ZnO Catalysts

Meer over het boek

The book delves into the significance of methanol as a crucial industrial chemical and fuel additive, emphasizing its role in organic synthesis and as a liquid hydrogen carrier. It explores the production of Cu/ZnO-based catalysts from synthesis gas, detailing the multi-step synthesis process. The research investigates how preparation parameters, such as pH during co-precipitation, the use of MgO, and Ga-ion doping, influence the catalysts' microstructure and activity. Various analytical methods are employed to assess the catalysts' properties and performance in methanol synthesis.
