Abstract
The reoxidation of low-pressure methanol synthesis catalyst was follow ed by means of DSC, with the aim of contributing to a better understan ding of the processes taking place during catalyst blanketing, stabili zation and re-oxidation. The investigations were carried out with prev iously hydrogen-reduced samples, and their successive re-oxidation was performed with different oxygen contents in the oxygen/nitrogen gas m ixtures. A procedure for catalyst stabilization and/or catalyst discha rge is proposed.
