The effective utilisation of CO2 is of a great significance from the point of view of global environmental protection. However, the Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst having a considerably high activity for methanol synthesis from syngas, exhibits rather poor activity and stability for hydrogenation of CO2. Ga and Zr promoted copper/zinc - catalysts have been investigated. The catalysts were prepared using the method of decomposition of organic complexes containing metallic components of catalyst e.g. thermal decomposition of citrates. Two catalysts of the same copper/zinc contents modificated by zirconium and galium were studied. The comparison with Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst has been given. Both Cu/Zn/Ga and Cu/Zn/Zr catalysts shows very high selectivity and stability. The crude methanol does not contain practically any by-products other than water.
