Several aspects of the process for producing methanol from syngas are different from those needed when using a pure source of CO 2 and H 2.For example, the formation of methanol from CO is based on CO ...

ABSTRACT: Methanol synthesis in a trickle bed reactor with tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (TEGDME) as the liquid phase over a Cu/Zn/Al2O3 catalyst was investigated. The pressure was kept constant ...
