In FT synthesis using CO₂ as a raw material, a reaction inhibition and catalyst deterioration due to a large amount of by-pruduced water are problems. These problems can be expected to be solved by the selective removal of water from the reaction system using a dehydration membrane. In this study, we developed a membrane reactor equipping zeolite dehydration membrane and investigated the effects of membrane dehydration on direct FT synthesis for CO₂.
