Compared to the catalysts modified by other type of carbon materials, the ACF-promoted catalyst prepared via carbonate-coprecipitation method exhibit the highest performance in the low-temperature steam reforming of methanol. It was suggested that the intrinsic high surface area nature of ACF material may favor the generation of modified catalysts with a high surface area and improved component dispersion, thus leading to improved performance for methanol steam reforming.展开更多

The results indicated that a used catalyst had a tendency to keep the last running state in new reaction conditions for MeOH formation, and that this tendency was related to the difference in Cu/Cun+ ratio caused by CO2 and CO produced at different reaction temperatures. However, the reverse water-gas shift reaction (RWGS) induced at four temperatures was completely different from that of methanol synthesis. It implied that the two so-called competitive reactions in CO2+H2, RWGS and methanol synthesis, have different active centers.展开更多
