Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to an iron-based bipolar membrane, a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to electrochemical reduction of CO2The technical field is as follows.
Background
Electrochemical CO2Reduction (CO)2RR) is before an itemA widely recognized technology for the production of CO from human production activities2Production of high value-added fuels and chemicals as a carbon source while effectively mitigating CO2Discharge in the atmosphere [ chem. Soc. Rev.2014,45,631-675]. Electricity and CO generated by renewable energy sources such as wind energy, solar energy, tidal energy and geothermal energy2Can be converted into a plurality of products in the electrochemical reactor, such as acid, alcohol, hydrocarbon, synthesis gas and the like [ Joule.2018,2,825-]. The selectivity of different products depends on a number of influencing factors, including: the type of catalyst and its morphology, the type and concentration of the electrolyte and the pH, the flow characteristics of the electrolyte, the aqueous or non-aqueous solvent, the temperature, pressure, potential and current density, and the impurities present in the electrolyte and the design of the cell [ ACS Catal.2017,7,4822-]。
Usually, to prevent CO2The products obtained by reduction are diffused to the anode to be oxidized, and the types of electrolytes used by the anode and the cathode are different due to different reactions. Therefore, a polymer film is often required to be added between the cathode and the anode for separating the cathode and the anode [ Ind]. There are currently three main types of polymer membranes, which are: alkaline anion exchange membranes, acidic membranes, and bipolar membranes, wherein acidic membranes have been shown to increase the evolution of hydrogen from competing reactions due to the conduction of large quantities of protons to the cathode, while alkaline membranes have been shown to have a higher formic acid "penetration" resulting in CO2Loss of reduced liquid product [ adv. sustatin. Syst.2018,2,1700187]。
Unlike the two membranes described above, the composition of the bipolar membrane comprises a positively charged Anion Exchange Layer (AEL), an intermediate catalytic layer, and a negatively charged Cation Exchange Layer (CEL) [ ChemUSChem.2014, 7,3017-]It can operate in two modes, (a) forward bias (V)>0) With the membrane's CEL towards the anode, (b) reverse bias (V)<0) With CEL facing the cathode. In forward bias mode, the electric field causes mobile ions to migrate to the Interface Region (IR), where they accumulate to compensate for the charge in the layer, thereby reducing the selectivity of the film. In contrast, in the reverse bias mode, when the applied voltage reaches a certain value, the voltage is applied to the substrateSeparation of water molecules will occur at the interface of AEL and CEL and there is an OnSager's Law of enhanced electric field, the second Diyan Effect [ Electrochim. acta.1986,31,1175-1177, in the interior of the membrane]In the presence of an applied electric field, H+Will migrate through CEL to the cathode, OH-Migrate to the anode by AEL. Electrochemical reduction of CO with bipolar membranes as compared to single-layer alkaline or acidic membranes2Has the outstanding advantages that: (a) when the bipolar membrane is used as a diaphragm, two electrolyte solutions with different pH values can be used for the anode and the cathode, and the pH values of the electrolytes on the two sides can be maintained in the using process; (b) the "breakthrough" (crossover) of the liquid product from cathode to anode was negligible; (c) when the electrolyte of the cathode and the anode is pure water, the acidification and the alkalization of the electrolyte do not need to add extra acid and alkali.
However, electrochemical reduction of CO is performed domestically2The field, whether colleges or scientific research institutions, is still focused on the development of electrocatalysts. The research on reaction devices and electrolytes has been started, but no one is concerned about bipolar membranes.

heating 50mL of the Afion stock solution (30 wt%) in a water bath at 85 ℃ for 5h, cooling to room temperature, metering to 50mL by using acetone, and repeating for three times to obtain a 30 wt% Nafion acetone solution. Commercial alkaline membranes were mounted between two glass plates to achieve 2 x 2cm2Is placed on a 45 ℃ hot plate, and 5mL of 0.01M aqueous solution of Fe (II) (iron acetate) in ethanol (ethanol: H) is sprayed using a spray gun2O1: 1 volume ratio) was uniformly sprayed on commercial alkaline membranes. 10mL of the above 30 wt% Nafion acetone solution was cast on the intermediate layer film containing Fe (II), and dried under an air flowing atmosphere at 30 ℃ for 2 h. And then, cold pressing the commercial alkaline membrane, the Fe (II) middle layer and the acid membrane composite layer for 10s at room temperature of 3MPa to obtain the bipolar membrane.
The electrochemical performance test was performed on an electrochemical workstation of Shanghai Chenhua corporation CHI760e, using a three-electrode system. Cu-dot-Bi metal electrode prepared by electrodeposition is used as a working electrode [ appl.Catal.B.288,120003(2021)]Ag/AgCl electrode as reference electrode, spectral fossil grinding rod as counter electrode, and electrolyte of 0.5M KHCO3And (3) solution. Cu-doped-Bi metal electrodes have been shown to efficiently convert CO2The formic acid is prepared by electrochemical reduction, so the liquid product A is researched by utilizing the catalytic electrodeThe "breakthrough" effect of the acid from the cathode to the anode. In the two-electrode test, carbon paper is used as a working electrode and a counter electrode respectively, and the electrolyte at the anode side is 0.5M KHCO3The solution and the catholyte are 0.5M KHCO containing formic acid, methanol and ethanol (0.02M) in sequence3And (3) solution.
FIG. 1 is a scanning electron microscope image of the bipolar membrane of example 1, wherein FIGS. 1(a) and 1(b) are surface topography images of the acidic membrane side and the alkaline membrane side of the bipolar membrane, respectively, and it can be seen that both surfaces are relatively smooth, which can effectively increase contact with the catholyte. FIGS. 1(c) and 1(d) are cross-sectional topography of the acidic membrane side and the alkaline membrane side of the bipolar membrane, respectively, and it can be seen that the cross-section of the acidic membrane side shows a dense microstructure, while the cross-section of the alkaline membrane side shows a layered porous structure, and the microstructure inside the alkaline membrane helps to improve the movement of carriers and accelerate OH-Of the network element.
As shown in FIG. 2, the Faraday efficiencies of formic acid when a Cu-doped-Bi metal electrode is used as a working electrode, Nafion 212 acidic membrane (DuPont corporation, USA), A201 alkaline membrane (Tokuyama corporation, Japan) and a bipolar membrane (bipolar membrane) in example 1 are used as a separator, respectively. It can be seen that the formic acid faradaic efficiency using the bipolar membrane prepared in example 1 as a separator is significantly higher than that using Nafion 212 acid membrane and a201 alkaline membrane, and particularly the formic acid faradaic efficiency reaches the highest (98%) at-0.97V.
FIG. 3 shows the "breakthrough" effect on formic acid from cathode to anode under three membrane operating conditions when the Cu-doped-Bi metal electrode is used as the working electrode. As can be seen, the formic acid "breakthrough" rate of the alkaline membrane (a201) is 22.92%, which is much higher than the Nafion 212 acid membrane in the united states. However, the bipolar membrane prepared in example 1 was used, and the presence of formic acid was not detected at the anode, which indicates that the bipolar membrane prepared in example 1 can effectively inhibit the "breakthrough" of formic acid from the cathode to the anode.
As shown in FIG. 4, in the two-electrode test, carbon paper was used as the working electrode and the counter electrode, and the electrolyte at the anode side was 0.5M KHCO3The solution and the catholyte are 0.5M KHCO containing formic acid, methanol and ethanol (0.02M) in sequence3And (3) solution. At 50mA/cm2Electricity (D) fromElectrolyzing for one hour under the current density, and respectively detecting the contents of formic acid, methanol and ethanol in the anode chamber. The results show that the formic acid, methanol and ethanol "breakthrough" (cross-over) rates of the Nafion 212 membrane are all less than that of the a201 membrane; whereas, with the bipolar membrane prepared in example 1, the presence of formic acid, methanol and ethanol was not detected at the anode (and thus not shown in fig. 4), indicating that the bipolar membrane is effective in inhibiting "breakthrough" of formic acid, methanol and ethanol from the cathode to the anode;
FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram showing the bipolar membrane prepared in example 1;
as shown in FIG. 6, which is a working mechanism diagram of the bipolar membrane prepared in example 1, under the action of reverse bias, the iron of the intermediate layer will promote the dissociation of water, resulting in H+Across the acid membrane to the cathode compartment, OH-Across the alkaline membrane to the anode compartment.
