Abstract

Techniques for capturing CO2 to create valuable chemicals and fuel can address enough of the environmental problems caused by the use of fossil fuels. The rate of methanol synthesis at the metal-oxide interface and the swift conversion of methanol to Al2O3 at acid sites had an impact on the production of DME.The synthesis of the intermediate is highly dependent on the texture, structure, and surface, based to an in-situ/operando Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy analysis performed under the reaction conditions (0.9 MPaG, 220-260°C).Formate species are created during the synthesis of methanol, depending on the conditions of the process. Technically speaking, the best conditions for converting CO2 and producing DME yield are a reaction temperature of less than 260°C and a reaction pressure of 0.9 MPaG.
