Key Points

Methanol selectivity increased significantly when using MgO-promoted CZA catalysts during CO2 hydrogenation, showing notable improvements.
The study found more than 20% enhanced performance in methanol output through optimized catalyst conditions in experimental setups.
Preparation involved aging of Cu.ZnO.Al2O3 catalysts with various alkaline earth oxides, particularly focusing on the effects of MgO promotion.
These findings indicate that magnesium oxide can enhance catalyst performance, stressing the potential for better CO2 conversion strategies.

Implication

Experiment shows improved methanol selectivity in CO2 hydrogenation using CZA catalysts promoted with MgO, suggesting better catalytic performance.

Abstract

Cu.ZnO.Al2O3 (CZA) catalysts promoted with alkaline earth oxides (MgO, CaO and BaO) were prepared and tested in the CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. The aging conditions was varied to observe the...
