Abstract

High-temperature reduction (HTR) of palladium catalysts supported on some reducible oxides, such as Pd/CeO2, and Pd/TiO2 catalysts, led to a strong metal-support interaction (SMSI), which was found to be the main reason for their high and stable activity for methanol synthesis from hydrogenation of carbon dioxide. But low-temperature-reduced (LTR) catalysts exhibited high methane selectivity and were oxidized to PdO quickly in the same reaction. Besides palladium, platinum exhibited similar behavior for this reaction when supported on these reducible oxides. Mechanistic studies of the Pd/CeO2 catalyst clarified the promotional role of the SMSI effect, and the spillover effect on the HTR Pd/CeO2 catalyst. Carbon dioxide was decomposed on Ce2O3, which was attached to Pd, to form CO and surface oxygen species. The carbon monoxide formed was hydrogenated to methanol successively on the palladium surface while the surface oxygen species was hydrogenated to water by spillover hydrogen from the gas phase. A reaction model for the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide was suggested for both HTR and LTR Pd/CeO2 catalysts. Methanol synthesis from syngas on the LTR or HTR Pd/CeO2 catalysts was also conducted. Both alcohol and hydrocarbons were formed significantly on the HTR catalyst from syngas while methanol formed predominantly on the LTR catalyst. Characterization of these two catalysts elucidated the reaction performances.
