Abstract

CO2 hydrogenation to dimethyl ether (DME) has drawn increasing interest in science and industry. However, the conversion of CO2 to DME is challenging due to the limitation of thermodynamic equilibrium and the water-induced degradation of the catalysts in a catalytic fixed bed reactor (CFBR). In this study, a novel reaction-separation coupling Cu–ZnO–Pt@HZSM-5 catalytic membrane reactor (CMR) was fabricated for CO2 hydrogenation to DME. Owing to continuous separation of the by-product steam by using an HZSM-5 membrane, the limitation of thermodynamic equilibrium can be broken effectively, thus leading to a substantially enhanced CO2 conversion (from 24.9% in the CFBR to 41.1% in the CMR) and DME selectivity (from 53.7% in the CFBR to 100% in the CMR). Further, water-induced degradation of the catalyst can be restrained because of water removal, thus keeping a high catalytic activity for a long time.
