A series of novel carbon nanofibers (CNFs) based Cu-ZrO2 catalysts were synthesized by deposition precipitation method. To investigate the influence of promoter, catalysts were loaded with 1, 2, 3 and 4 wt% ZnO and characterized by ICP-OES, HRTEM, BET, N2O chemisorption, TPR, XPS and CO2-TPD techniques. The results revealed that physicochemical properties of the catalysts were strongly influenced by incorporation of ZnO to the parent catalyst. Copper surface area (S-Cu) and dispersion (D-Cu) were slightly decreased by incorporation of ZnO promoter. Nevertheless, S-Cu and D-Cu were remarkably decreased when ZnO content was exceeded beyond 3 wt%. The catalytic performance was evaluated by using autoclave slurry reactor at a pressure and temperature of 30 bar and 180 degrees C, respectively. The promotion of CuZrO 2 /CNFs catalyst with 3 wt% of ZnO enhanced methanol synthesis rate from 32 to 45 g kg(-1) h(-1). Notably, with the ZnO promotion the selectivity to methanol was enhanced to 92% compared to 78% of the un-promoted Cu-ZrO2/CNFs catalyst at the expense of a lowered CO2 conversion. In addition, the catalytic activity of this novel catalyst system for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol was compared with the recent literature data.
