High-activity methanol synthesis catalyst is a specialized catalytic material designed to efficiently convert synthesis gas (CO + H₂) into methanol with superior selectivity and stability. Engineered with advanced metal-supported formulations, it optimizes reaction kinetics, enhances conversion rates, and ensures prolonged operational lifespan for industrial applications. This catalyst is widely used in methanol production, chemical feedstock refinement, and large-scale petrochemical processing, providing reliable performance for continuous hydrogenation reactions.
Product Overview
The high-activity methanol synthesis catalyst is specifically designed for low-pressure methanol synthesis units, suitable for feedstocks such as natural gas, coke oven gas, and coal-based syngas. This catalyst exhibits significant high activity at low temperatures, improving the space-time yield and CO conversion rate in methanol synthesis. It offers strong thermal stability and selectivity, helping to reduce organic by-products and increasing the methanol content in crude methanol. The catalyst has a long service life, low pressure drop, ease of operation, high strength, and minimal issues with caking, making it an ideal choice for increasing methanol plant productivity.
