AB - Abstract Hydrogenation of CO2 to hydrocarbons over iron nanoparticles supported on oxygen-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes was studied in a fixed-bed U-tube reactor at 25 bar with a H2:CO2 ratio of 3. Conversion of CO2 was approximately 35% yielding C1–C5 products at 360 ∘C with methane and CO as major products. The CO2 equilibrium conversion for temperatures in the range of 320 ∘ to 420∘C was analysed by using CHEMCAD simulation software. Comparison between experimental and simulated degrees of CO2 conversion shows that reverse water gas shift equilibrium had been achieved in the investigated temperature range and that less than 47% of CO2 can be converted to CO at 420∘C. CO2 hydrogenation to short chain hydrocarbons was achieved using iron nanoparticles supported on oxygen-functionalized carbon nanotubes. The conversion of CO2 was found to be limited by the reverse water gas shift equilibrium in the temperature range from 320° to 420°C.
