Copper-containing catalyst and a process for the preparation thereof
This invention relates to a copper-containing catalyst, a process for the preparation thereof and uses of the catalyst. The catalyst includes copper oxide of 30-70 wt %, zinc oxide of 30-70 wt %, alumina of 0-30 wt % and no sodium, and has a specific surface area of 30-50 m2/g, a pore volume of 0.10-0.25 ml/g, and an average pore diameter of 10-25 nm and has a uniform crystallite distribution wherein the crystallites having a diameter of less than 1.0 nm account for 0-10%, thoseof 1.0-2.0 nm account for 80-95%, and those of more than 2.0 nm account for 0-10%. The process includes a co-precipitation method using an organic acid and/or an ammonium salt thereof as precipitant to provide a copper-containing catalyst having a relatively large specific surface area and pore volume, and a uniform crystallite distribution.
