Abstract

The kinetics of hydrogenation of CO2 to methane on an NKM-4A nickel-containing catalyst was studied in a wide range of change of partial pressures of hydrogen and carbon dioxide at 498–543 K. It was shown that when hydrogen is replaced by deuterium in the reaction, a reverse kinetic isotope effect is observed. The kinetic equation of the reaction was derived and a stepwise scheme is proposed which includes the involvement of oxygen-containing intermediates in the process without preliminary dissociation of CO2.
