How are copper-based catalysts reduced? Answer: In methanol synthesis, copper-based catalysts have only copper oxide reduced under normal reduction conditions; the oxides of zinc and aluminum are not reduced. Reduction is carried out in layers; for the catalyst bed, reduction takes place layer by layer from top to bottom. For each catalyst particle, reduction occurs gradually from the surface toward the interior. The reduction of copper-based catalysts for methanol synthesis is an exothermic reaction: CuO + H2 = Cu + H2O (–ΔH25℃) = 86.5 KJ/mol. During the reduction process, the amount of water produced is approximately 20% of the catalyst’s weight. The copper content varies among different catalysts; chemical water accounts for about 8-10%, while physical water accounts for 10-13%.

The reduction of copper-based catalysts for methanol synthesis is an exothermic reaction: under normal reduction conditions, only copper oxide in the copper-based catalysts for methanol synthesis is reduced, while the oxides of zinc and aluminum are not reduced. Reduction is carried out in layers; for the catalyst bed, reduction takes place layer by layer from top to bottom. For each catalyst particle, reduction occurs gradually from the surface inward. CuO + H2 = Cu + H2O (-ΔH25℃) = 86.5 KJ/mol. During the reduction process, the amount of water produced is approximately 20% of the catalyst’s weight. The copper content varies among different catalysts; chemical water accounts for about 8-10%, while physical water accounts for 10-13%.
