Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) are essential technologies for realizing carbon neutrality in the context of fossil fuel decarbonization. Integrated carbon capture and utilization, in conjunction with the reverse water gas shift reaction (ICCU-RWGS), presents a promising strategy for the in-situ conversion of CO2. This approach mitigates the energy penalties associated with CO2 capture and eliminates the additional costs associated with storage and transportation. In this study, we employed a Cu-Al composite catalyst, prepared using the impregnation method, for ICCU-RWGS, with a specific focus on CO2 hydrogenation. The kinetics of hydrogenation for the Cu-Al catalyst were comprehensively investigated using micro-fluidized bed thermogravimetric analysis coupled with mass spectrometry (MFB-TGA-MS). The results indicate that, when subjected to experimental conditions involving 800 °C, 20 vol.% CO2, 30 vol.% H2, and a sample mass of 1 g, the comprehensive evaluation reveals a CO2 conversion rate of 43.67 %. This conversion is accompanied by 100 % CO selectivity and a reaction rate of 0.10 mmol·g−1·s−1, respectively. Furthermore, we calculated the kinetic parameters for the CO2 hydrogenation by analyzing the MFB-TGA-MS data, utilizing the simplified K-L model for fluidized beds. The results indicated an activation energy of 55.8 kJ∙mol−1. These findings highlight the effectiveness of ICCU-RWGS methodologies, especially concerning CO2 hydrogenation, and present a compelling case for their further commercialization.
