Popis: Two kinds of Co 3 O 4 with different morphologies (nanorods and naoplates) were used to support Pt nanoparticles to prepared Pt/Co 3 O 4 catalysts. The properties of the nano-structured Co 3 O 4 and Pt/Co 3 O 4 were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, H 2 -TPR and XPS techniques. The catalyst activity was studied in higher alcohol synthesis from CO 2 hydrogenation in fixed-bed reactor operated at 2 MPa and 190–230 °C. The catalyst gave a stable and relative higher CO 2 conversion and alcohol selectivity during 50 h under mild reaction condition. The morphology of Co 3 O 4 affected the catalyst’s CO 2 conversion and production selectivity. The active surface of Pt/Co 3 O 4 -p catalyst was high dispersed Pt and Co nanoparticles anchored on Co 3 O 4 support with some oxygen vacancies, evidenced by XRD results. The highest space time yield of higher alcohol (0.56 mmol g cat −1 h −1 ) was achieved at 200 °C and 2 MPa for Pt/Co 3 O 4 -p catalyst.
