Cu‐Co/ZnAl2O4 Catalysts for CO Conversion to Higher Alcohols Synthesized from Co‐Precipitated Hydrotalcite Precursors
The role of Cu:Co composition in bi-metallic Cu-Co/ZnAl2O4 catalysts on higher alcohol synthesis (HAS) was investigated at H2:CO = 4. The addition of Cu strongly facilitated Co reduction upon catalyst activation and suppressed coke deposition during HAS. Formation of predominantly hydrocarbons and higher alcohols was observed on the bi-metallic catalysts. Co/ZnAl2O4 produced mainly CH4 and Cu/ZnAl2O4 mainly CH3OH, while at Cu:Co = 0.6 the best ethanol selectivity of 4.5 % was reached. The microstructure of the spent catalysts confirmed a close interaction of Cu and Co.
