الوصف: Stable F-T-based catalyst development in direct CO hydrogenation to higher alcohols is still a challenge at present. In this study, CuFe/SiO2 catalysts with a SiO2 support treated with a piranha solution were prepared and evaluated in a long-term reaction. The treated catalyst showed higher total alcohols’ selectivity and great stability during a reaction of more than 90 h. It was found that the treatment with the piranha solution enriched the surface hydroxyl groups on SiO2, so that the Cu–Fe active components could be firmly anchored and highly dispersed on the support, resulting in stable catalytic performance. Furthermore, the in situ DRIFTS revealed that the adsorption strength of CO on Cu+ on the treated catalyst surface was weakened, which made the C-O bond less likely to be cleaved and thus significantly inhibited the formation of hydrocarbon products. Meanwhile, the non-dissociated CO species were obviously enriched on the Cu0 surface, promoting the formation of alcohol products, and thus the selectivity of total alcohols was increased. This strategy will shed light on the design of supported catalysts with stabilized structures for a wide range of catalytic reactions.
