Methanol synthesis catalyst is a kind of copper based methanol synthesis catalyst, the main component is CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 (Cu Zn Al). Which is used in low-pressure methanol synthesis process with coal, natural gas or oil as feedstock.
Methanol synthesis catalyst is mainly used for the synthesis of methanol synthesis process, through the CO, CO2 generated methanol hydrogen reaction. It has high activity at low temperature, good thermal stability, wide operating temperature window and good selectivity.
Methanol synthesis catalyst is widely used in methanol synthesis unit with natural gas, coke oven gas, refinery gas, naphtha, coal, oil field gas as raw materials, including Lurgi and ICI medium and low pressure processes. Its activity level has reached the most advanced level of foreign similar products.
