Caption
The proximity of Cu and Ga species over Cu/Ga-SiO2-20Me catalyst could simultaneously realize tandem reactions of hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol and dehydration of methanol to DME, where further transportation and re-adsorption of methanol intermedia to the hydrophobic catalyst was avoided. Moreover, the methyl groups efficiently removed the water generated in these two reactions, shifting the reaction equilibrium forward. In this case, CO2 conversion and DME selectivity were both promoted over Cu/Ga-SiO2-20Me catalyst.
