Abstract
The present disclosure provides catalysts, reactor systems, and methods for the conversion of carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas into paraffins, olefins, and other hydrocarbon products. Methods for utilization of mixtures of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen gas in a manner distinct from legacy Fischer-Tropsch reactors to produce hydrocarbons is also included.
Claims20
A method for converting CO2 and a first reduction gas to long-chain hydrocarbons comprising:
- contacting a feed mixture comprising CO2 and the first reduction gas with a first catalyst to produce a product mixture comprising long-chain hydrocarbons, wherein the first catalyst comprises
- iron and
- zinc;
- and
- wherein the product mixture comprises a gaseous product mixture and a liquid product mixture comprising linear hydrocarbons with a carbon number between 6 and 30.
