Abstract
This study introduces a novel one-pot reaction system that efficiently converts greenhouse gases into methanol while simultaneously processing polyethylene terephthalate (PET) into dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) and ethylene glycol (EG). Our approach involves the development of hybrid materials derived from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) using an aerosol-assisted synthesis method. These catalysts, which include a Cu/ZnO active phase on various supports, are optimized for the hydrogenation of both carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2). By integrating PET methanolysis with the (CO2 + CO) hydrogenation process, we achieved a significant enhancement in conversion ratios, exceeding 2.5 times their individual values. This synergistic approach effectively addresses the challenges posed by both plastic waste and greenhouse gas emissions. An impressive space–time yield of 5.6 mmol gcat−1h−1 and selectivity of 92 % for DMT production were achievable under optimized conditions. These results highlight the effectiveness of MOF-derived catalyst materials in facilitating complex chemical transformations and contribute significantly to environmental sustainability. This dual-function system offers a practical solution for the utilization of plastic waste and greenhouse gases, marking an important step toward a circular economy.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Advanced Powder Technology is to meet the demand for an international journal that integrates all aspects of science and technology research on powder and particulate materials. The journal fulfills this purpose by publishing original research papers, rapid communications, reviews, and translated articles by prominent researchers worldwide.
The editorial work of Advanced Powder Technology, which was founded as the International Journal of the Society of Powder Technology, Japan, is now shared by distinguished board members, who operate in a unique framework designed to respond to the increasing global demand for articles on not only powder and particles, but also on various materials produced from them.
Advanced Powder Technology covers various areas, but a discussion of powder and particles is required in articles. Topics include: Production of powder and particulate materials in gases and liquids(nanoparticles, fine ceramics, pharmaceuticals, novel functional materials, etc.); Aerosol and colloidal processing; Powder and particle characterization; Dynamics and phenomena; Calculation and simulation (CFD, DEM, Monte Carlo method, population balance, etc.); Measurement and control of powder processes; Particle modification; Comminution; Powder handling and operations (storage, transport, granulation, separation, fluidization, etc.)
