Description

Preparation and application of carbon dioxide electrochemical reduction catalyst
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of carbon dioxide electrochemical reduction, and particularly relates to a preparation method and application of a carbon dioxide electrochemical reduction monatomic catalyst.
Background
Currently, the economy and society of China are in a high-speed development stage, the demand for energy is increasing day by day, and then the problem of serious carbon dioxide emission is brought. According to the latest report of International Energy Agency (IEA), the worldwide CO was estimated in 20172The emission reaches 410 hundred million tons, which is increased by 2 percent compared with 2016. Therefore, how to reduce CO2Effective utilization of CO2Has become a hot spot of research in recent years.
CO2The transformation and utilization of (1) mainly include the following four types, i.e., chemical transformation, biochemical transformation, photochemical transformation and electrochemical transformation. With other CO2Compared with the conversion technology, the electrochemical reduction of CO2The (ERC) technology has the outstanding advantages that water can be used as a hydrogen source for reaction, and CO can be realized at normal temperature and normal pressure2The energy consumption caused by hydrogen production, heating and pressurization required by the chemical conversion technology is not needed.
Electrochemical reduction of CO2(ERC) technology is the use of electrical energy generated from renewable energy sources to convert CO2Reduction to chemicals to effect CO2A resource utilization technology. CO generation by electrochemical techniques2Directly with H2And O reacts to generate compounds with high added values, such as ethanol, methane, hydrocarbon compounds and the like, so that the conversion between electric energy and chemical energy is realized. Not only makes ERC technique more economic, but also can realize the storage of renewable energy sources and form a carbon and energy conversion cycle. Currently, ERC techniques are restrictedThe main factors of development include: (1) the reaction overpotential is high; (2) the conversion rate is low; (3) the product selectivity is poor. Therefore, the search for suitable catalysts to reduce reaction overpotentials, improve product selectivity and reactivity is the key to current research. At present, the research on the catalyst mainly focuses on noble metal catalysts such as gold and silver, and the like, although the catalysts have high selectivity and high price, the catalysts are not suitable for large-scale commercial production. However, the research on the non-metal catalyst is relatively less, and in recent years, the monoatomic metal-doped carbon-based material has attracted much attention, and the monoatomic catalyst has the following advantages: (1) the utilization rate of atoms is close to 100 percent, and (2) when the metal exists in the form of single atom, the metal has higher coordination unsaturation degree, and is favorable for adsorbing CO2And reaction intermediates are stabilized, so that the catalytic performance is higher. However, when a monatomic catalyst is synthesized by a general wet chemical method, there is a problem that metal atoms are agglomerated due to high-temperature calcination, thereby causing a great reduction in catalyst performance. Therefore, how to prepare the monatomic catalyst with high dispersion and high load becomes a problem which needs to be solved urgently at present.
