Abstract:
The invention relates to a catalytically active body for the synthesis of dimethyl ether from synthesis gas. In particular, the invention relates to an improved catalytically active body for the synthesis of dimethyl ether, whereby the components of the active body comprise a defined particle size distribution. Furthermore, the present invention concerns a method for the preparation of a catalytically active body, the use of the catalytically active body and a method for preparation of dimethyl ether from synthesis gas.

Abstract:
A highly active water gas shift catalyst, preparation process and use thereof are provided. The catalyst comprises at least one noble metal in an amount of from 0.001 to 1.10% by weight, based on the total weight of the catalyst, at least one alkali metal and/or alkaline earth metal and at least one dopant selected from the group of Fe, Cr, Cu, Zn and mixtures thereof on a support material. The catalyst can be used to convert carbon monoxide and water into carbon dioxide and hydrogen in a wide temperature range.
