FORMATE PRODUCTION METHOD AND FORMATE PRODUCTION SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention pertains to a formate production method comprising: a first step for producing a formate by causing a reaction between hydrogen and carbon dioxide in a solution containing a solvent, a catalyst dissolved in the solvent, and a metal salt or an organic sa and a second step for separating, by using a separation membrane, the catalyst from the reaction solution obtained from the first step. The catalyst includes at least one metal element selected from the group consisting of metal elements belonging to group 8, group 9, and group 10 of the periodic table.
