N2 - Highly active, moderate temperature, nano-structured catalysts for the hydrogenation of CO2-rich feedstocks to produce liquid synthetic fuels were studied. The bi-functional catalysts contained a methanol synthesis catalyst (Cu/ZnO) and a methanol to gasoline functionality (ZSM-5) in close proximity. The Cu/ZnO was incorporated into the composite catalyst using a hydrothermal synthesis method. Catalyst activities and selectivities for the production of methanol, dimethylether, and hydrocarbons were measured and compared to commercially available catalysts. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the AIChE Annual Meeting (Salt Lake, UT 11/4-9/2007).
