The kinetics of methanol synthesis has been studied over SNM type oxide catalysts containing copper experimentally and theoretically. Various kinetic process models have been analyzed and distinguished by nonlinear estimation of parameters and by direct experiment to clarify the individual properties of each mode. A single kinetic model has been chosen; its applicability to this methanol synthesis has been demonstrated for a wide range of reaction mixtures at various temperatures and pressures.
