Book Electrochemical Carbon Dioxide Reduction to Formic Acid in a Flow Cell using Molecular Catalysts  Band 11

Download or read book Electrochemical Carbon Dioxide Reduction to Formic Acid in a Flow Cell using Molecular Catalysts Band 11 written by Paul Rößner and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2023-02-09 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work adresses the gap between basic research and applied research in the field of CO₂ electrolysis using molecular catalysts. The development of new catalysts includes important aspects of the industrial application as early as possible to unlock the true potential of a catalyst and to prevent potential problems that occur when changing to industrially relevant process conditions. The results show that unexpected phenomena can occur when scaling up a technology from lab scale to pilot, or even industrial scale, advocating an effort to come as close as possible to large scale conditions, already in the lab. That can prevent major setbacks in the process and save valuable time and effort. This aspect is underlined by recent research in the specific field of CO₂ electrolysis using organometallic complexes, as catalysts show different performance characteristics after immobilization, for example. The successful development of future solutions depends on the interdisciplinary collaboration taking into account molecular considerations as well as process engineering aspects.

Download or read book Electrochemical and Electrocatalytic Reactions of Carbon Dioxide written by B.P. Sullivan and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recycling of atmospheric molecules for use as fuels and chemicals is a goal which can only be achieved through a deeper understanding of catalytic processes, particularly electrocatalysis whereby redox transformations can be interfaced with solar or nuclear energy input. Carbon dioxide is a prototypical small molecule in many regards since it is chemically inert. In addition, because of the likely role of carbon dioxide in global temperature cycles, it will be imperative in the future to regulate the output from industrial processes. The purpose of this book is to present a unified discussion of the carbon dioxide chemistry which is necessary for the understanding and design of electrochemically-driven processes for the reduction of carbon dioxide and to provide an impetus for the further development of electrocatalytic carbon dioxide chemistry.

Book Designing Selective Catalysts for Production of Formic Acid Through Electrochemical Reduction of CO2

Download or read book Designing Selective Catalysts for Production of Formic Acid Through Electrochemical Reduction of CO2 written by Vivek Shastry Devalla and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transforming carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable chemical feedstocks through electrochemical processes powered by renewable electricity shows promise in achieving carbon neutrality. However, the development of effective and selective catalysts is essential for enabling energy-efficient conversion. The activity and selectivity of the reaction towards formic acid production are governed by the stabilization of the *OCHO intermediate on the catalyst surface. This thesis presents strategies for designing active electrocatalysts that exhibit improved selectivity towards formic acid in CO2 electrolysis by manipulating the chemical environment surrounding the catalyst. Introducing a partial positively charged copper species on the surface in the form of copper sulfide stabilizes the *OCHO intermediate on the catalyst surface. The ligand plays a key role in supplying the proton required for the reduction of CO2 to formate, and that an optimum pKa value ligand is beneficial for improved selectivity towards formate. Another aspect involves tuning the chemical state of tin oxide catalyst surfaces. By favoring a Sn (II) rich initial surface oxidation state, the selectivity and energy efficiency of formate generation are improved, offering a potential near-term solution for carbon-negative CO2 electrolysis. Optimal design of electrolyzers is also crucial for facilitating the mass transport of CO2, thereby increasing industrial relevance. These discoveries underscore the importance of chemical environment surrounding the catalyst, and chemical state in the efficient design of CO2 reduction catalysts to formic acid and providing fundamental guidelines and direction towards achieving carbon-neutral CO2 conversion.

Book Catalysis and Interfacial Electrochemistry for Carbon Dioxide Conversion

Download or read book Catalysis and Interfacial Electrochemistry for Carbon Dioxide Conversion written by Xuesi Yao and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable energy and green chemistry are two main challenges to human beings. Thousands of researchers have paid tremendous effort to develop materials and technologies, that can efficiently utilize energy, reduce waste emission, and convert waste into high value chemicals. Among those researches, catalytic technology is one of the most practical and promising method to realize those goals to improve the environment and supply industrial products at the same time. Heterogeneous catalysts are the most common materials employed in industrial production. To understand and develop an efficient catalytic system, deep understanding of catalytic mechanism from molecular level is needed. The adsorbed species, including reactants, intermediates and products, are the most desired information that can assist researchers to analyze catalytic process and evaluate performance. In the aspect of investigating adsorbed species, infrared spectroscopy is the most robust analytical techniques that can provide detailed insights from the change of chemical bonds. Currently, many catalytic mechanisms of CO2 conversion remain uncleared. For example, the dimethyl carbonate synthesis from CO2 and methanol. Although many infrared studies have been carried, all of them were conducted under low pressure and none of them showed the dimethyl carbonate formation process. For the photo-catalytic reduction of CO2 and H2O, there is no work exhibiting the electron transport process from catalyst to reactant. In this dissertation, with the support of in situ FTIR, those issues in different CO2 catalytic conversion and electron transport processes were discussed, including (i) catalytic conversion of CO2 and methanol into dimethyl carbonate: a green chemical for various applications, (ii) Photo-generated electrons on different TiO2 catalysts (iii) Photo-catalytic reduction of CO2 and water into formic acid, (iv) hydrogen production from photo-electrochemical cells. Due to the difference in experiment conditions, various infrared techniques have been applied, including diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS), transmission, and attenuated total reflectance (ATR). By interpreting the infrared spectra, many significant steps in catalytic processes was observed. For the dimethyl carbonate synthesis, the FTIR revealed an important intermediate, terminal monomethyl carbonate, under high pressure, as well as the formation of hydroxyls on the catalyst. The effects of light intensity and dopants on the photo-generated electrons in TiO photocatalyst were clarified with FTIR spectra. With the help of in situ IR, the electron transfer from photocatalyst to CO2 and H2O was successfully monitored. The photo-catalytic performance of different photocatalyst was explained. FTIR result was also used to propose the charge transport process on polyaniline coated TiO2 during water splitting.
