Above-mentioned copper catalyst its preparation method can adopt dipping method, comprising the step impregnation method, promptly elder generation is with the aqueous solution of the salt of above-mentioned metal, perhaps ethanolic soln floods carrier, also can adopt coprecipitation method to prepare catalyzer, 10~200 ℃ of catalyzer drying temperatures, 300~600 ℃ of maturing temperatures, roasting time 1~10 hour.
Use the copper catalyst of method for preparing, under 200~400 ℃ of temperature, with H2 or H
2After reducing 1~50 hour under the rare gas element mixed atmosphere, be used further to the hydrogenation reaction of independent acetaldehyde, ethyl acetate, acetate or their mixture arbitrarily.
The present invention proposes a method from the synthetic gas synthesizing alcohol.Its first step is used Rh/SiO
2Catalyzer, the ethanol of generation accounts for 30~40%; The catalyzer that passes through when the second step reaction adopts when being the copper catalyst of precipitator method preparation, and ethanol accounts for more than 90% in its final product.
