Bifunctional CoFe/HZSM-5 catalysts orient CO2 hydrogenation towards liquid hydrocarbons†
Abstract
Converting CO2 to liquid (C5+) hydrocarbons remains a significant hurdle. Our study shows that CoFe/HZSM-5 boosts C5+ selectivity to 73.4%, up from 59% for Fe/HZSM-5. This study highlights the pivotal roles of zeolite acidity and catalyst proximity in this improvement. These insights pave the way for more effective CO2 utilization.
