The present invention relates to a process and a reactor for the production of a liquid methanol and water condensate from a gaseous CO2 and H2 feed or from a gaseous CO2, CO and H2 feed, or to a process for the production of a liquid methanol condensate from a gaseous CO and H2 feed. Said reactor has a separate reaction zone and condensation zone. The inventors have shown that,by removing a liquid condensate in a condensation zone positioned inside the reactor from the gaseous reaction products and by allowing for convective mass exchange between the reaction zone and the condensation zone under forced and natural convection conditions, the gaseous feed can be fully converted into a liquid product comprising methanol with a high selectivity of the reactants towards methanol. |
