Abstract: A series of CuZnAlSi bifunctional catalysts with different Si/Al ratio were prepared by a complete liquid phase method and the catalytic performance was evaluated in a slurry reactor. The catalysts were characterized by means of XRD, NH3-TPD-MS, H2-TPR and XPS. The results showed that Cu species was present as low-valence in the catalysts prepared by complete liquid-phase technology. The grain size of Cu had major impact on the catalytic activity. The change of Si/Al ratio led to the change of acid amount and acid strength, thereby influence the selectivity of catalysts. Adjusting the Si / Al ratio can improve the stability of catalysts. When the Si/Al ratio equaled to 1/2, the catalyst can obtain good performance.
