Methanol synthesis from CO2 hydrogenation in a fixed-bed plug flow reactor was investigated over Cu–ZrO2 catalysts supported on CNTs bearing various functional groups. The highest methanol activity (turnover frequency 1.61 × 10−2 s−1, space time yield 84.0 mg gcat−1 h−1) was obtained over the Cu/ZrO2/CNTs catalyst (CZ/CNT-3) with CNTs functionalized by nitrogen-containing groups and Cu loading only about 10.3 wt% under the reaction conditions of 260 °C, 3.0 MPa, V(H2) : V(CO2) : V(N2) = 69 : 23 : 8 and GHSV of 3600 h−1. The catalysts were fully characterized by N2 physisorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), H2-temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and temperature-programmed desorption of H2 (H2-TPD) techniques. The excellent performance of CZ/CNT-3 is attributed to the presence of nitrogen-containing groups on the CNTs surface, which increase the dispersion of copper oxides, promote their reduction, decreases the crystal size of Cu, and enhances H2 and CO2 adsorption capability, thus leading to good catalytic performance towards methanol synthesis.
