Abstract The development of indium-based catalysts with high activity and stability for promoting carbon dioxide hydrogenation to methanol is indeed a significance area of research for advancing green and sustainable technologies. The introduction of Ni into indium oxide through the co-precipitation method has been shown to effectively modulate the structure and surface properties of the crystal, leading to enhanced catalytic performance. In results, it was found that at a Ni content of 2.5%, Ni primarily exists as highly dispersed Ni²⁺ within the crystal structure, which significantly increases the oxygen vacancy content on the surface of the material. While at a higher Ni content of 10.0%, Ni exists not only in the form of Ni²⁺, but also partly in the metallic form. Comparing the catalytic performance of indium oxide with different nickel content at 260 ℃, 3 MPa and space velocity of 8 000 mL·g^-1·h^-1, 2.5% Ni@In₂O₃ exhibits better catalytic performance, achieving CO₂ conversion of 5.5% and methanol selectivity of 36.5%. This suggests that controlling the Ni content and its chemical state in indium oxide catalysts can optimize the oxygen vacancy on the surface of In₂O₃ and enhance the activity of catalyst.
