The synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) from CO2 and methanol is a very interesting reaction, but is thermodynamically limited. In this work, CaC2 was used to consume the water produced in the reaction to shift the reaction equilibrium, and C2H2 was produced at the same time. This is the first work on the combination of driving a thermodynamically unfavorable reaction and producing C2H2 using CaC2.
由二氧化碳和甲醇合成碳酸二甲酯（DMC）是一个非常有趣的反应，但在热力学上受到限制。在这项工作中，使用碳化钙（CaC2）消耗反应中产生的水来移动反应平衡，同时生成乙炔（C2H2）。这是首次将推动热力学不利反应与利用碳化钙生产乙炔相结合的工作。
