AI Article Synopsis

  • - The study addresses the challenge of developing efficient catalysts for producing higher alcohols from CO hydrogenation, focusing on modified Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (m-FTS) systems which struggle with active site density in industrial settings.
  • - The research highlights the effectiveness of highly dispersed metal oxides, particularly ZrO, as a promoter in improving catalyst performance, showing that 5-10 mol % ZrO significantly enhances HA productivity.
  • - The optimized CuCo@ZrO-5 catalyst, featuring a specific metal ratio and ZrO, achieved a 2.5-fold increase in HA output compared to a ZrO-free version, with stable performance over 300 hours, demonstrating ZrO's crucial role in

Article Abstract

The development of efficient catalysts for the direct synthesis of higher alcohols (HA) via CO hydrogenation has remained a prominent research challenge. While modified Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (m-FTS) systems hold great potential, they often retain limited active site density under operating conditions for industrially relevant performance. Aimed at improving existing catalyst architectures, this study investigates the impact of highly dispersed metal oxides of Co-Cu, Cu-Fe, and Co-Fe m-FTS systems and demonstrates the viability of ZrO as a general promoter in the direct synthesis of HA from syngas. A volcano-like composition-performance relationship, in which 5-10 mol % ZrO resulted in maximal HA productivity, governs all catalyst families. The promotional effect resulted in a 2.5-fold increase in HA productivity for the optimized CuCo@ZrO-5 catalyst (Cu:Co = 1:4, 5 mol % ZrO) compared to its ZrO-free counterpart and placed CoFe@ZrO-10 among the most productive systems (345 mg h g) reported in this category under comparable operating conditions, with stable performance for at least 300 h. ZrO assumes an amorphous and defective nature on the catalysts, leading to enhanced H and CO activation, facilitated formation of metallic and carbide phases, and structural stabilization.
