• The concurrent synthesis of methanol and methyl formate from syngas at low temperature and pressure in a slurry reactor have been investigated. The results showed that the catalysts prepared by different technique have different activities and selectivities of MF, and the catalyst prepared by complex precipitation method has higher activity of methanol and MF synthesis. Temperature and pressure have a significant influence on the activity and MF selectivity of the catalysts. The activity of Cu-Cr catalyst increases with the augmentation of temperature and pressure. The MF selectivity of Cu-Cr catalyst decreases with the increase of temperature. Nevertheless, the selectivity of MF increases with the increase of pressure.
