Reaction coupling as a promising methodology for selective conversion of syngas into hydrocarbons beyond Fischer-Tropsch synthesis

Syngas （CO/H2） is a key platform that bridges various car- bon resources （including natural gas or shale gas, coal and biomass） and liquid fuels or high-value chemicals. In addi- tion to these carbon resources, syngas can also be produced from waste and CO2. From syngas, a variety of products such as hydrocarbons, which can be either liquid fuels （gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel） or building-block chemicals （lower olefins and aromatics）, and oxygenates （methanol and ethanol or other C2＋ oxygenates） can be obtained. The development of efficient catalysts for the conversion ofsyngas into specific target products is the core of syngas chemistry. The selectiv- ity control is the biggest challenge in syngas chemistry.
