Continuous DMC synthesis from CO2 and methanol over CeO2 catalyst in fixed bed reactor in presence of dehydrating agent Bansode, Atul Urakawa, Atsushi heterogeneous catalysis CO2 conversion dimethyl carbonate dehydrating agent 2-cyanopyridine high pressure methanol conversion continuous flow fixed bed reactor <p> Methanol and carbon dioxide are continuously and efficiently converted to dimethyl carbonate (DMC) over CeO₂catalyst using 2-cyanopyrindine as a recyclable dehydrating agent in a fixed bed reactor. The process was operated over a wide range of pressure (1-300 bar) by feeding CO₂ and the stoichiometric amount of methanol and 2-cyanopyrinde mixture into the reactor. The study shows successful demonstration of direct DMC synthesis mediated by dehydrating agent with outstanding methanol conversion (&gt;95%) and dimethyl carbonate selectivity (&gt;99%) under optimized conditions. Remarkably higher reaction rates were achieved compared to those in batch operation.</p> 2014 info:eu-repo/semantics/article http://hdl.handle.net/2072/305896 https://doi.org/10.1021/cs501221q eng ICIQ Foundation MINECO Severo Ochoa Excellence Accreditation 2014-2018 ACS Catalysis SEV-2013-0319 CTQ2012-34153 © 2014 American Chemical Society info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess application/pdf ACS Publications RECERCAT (Dipòsit de la Recerca de Catalunya)
