By using CO2The nontoxic and nonflammable raw material can be used for obtaining products with high added value such as methanol, meets the requirement of green chemistry, and has great environmental effect and economic effect. In addition, the methanol has wide application prospect as a basic organic chemical raw material and a power fuel, and can be used for preparing products such as low-carbon olefin, formic acid, methyl formate, acetic acid and the like.

Due to the conventional CZA catalyst to CO2The catalytic performance of hydrogenation for preparing methanol is not high enough, and researches mainly focus on improving the performance of the catalyst by adding an auxiliary agent or changing a preparation mode. For example, Chinese patents CN101983765A, CN102000578A, CN102302934A, CN101513615A and CN104549299A respectively disclose CO modified by auxiliary agent2Catalyst for preparing methanol by hydrogenation and preparation method thereof, wherein the main body of the catalyst is CZA catalyst, and the auxiliary agent is ZrO2、SiO2And MgO and the like; as reported in CN 104383928A, the rake science and technology ltd, first performs cocurrent precipitation on an active component salt solution and a precipitant to prepare an active component slurry a, performs cocurrent precipitation on a carrier component salt solution and a precipitant to prepare a carrier slurry B, adds the slurry a into the slurry B, performs vigorous pulping, and then adds the active component salt solution and the precipitant to prepare a catalyst slurry. The catalyst performance can be improved by introducing the auxiliary agent in a coprecipitation mode, but for gas-solid heterogeneous catalysis, the auxiliary agent embedded in a catalyst body phase cannot be fully and effectively utilized; changing the preparation method only for CO2The CZA catalyst for preparing methanol by hydrogenation is improved.
