Description

Bimetal alloy modified carbon nano sheet material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The application relates to a bimetal alloy modified carbon nano sheet material, a preparation method and application thereof, belonging to the technical field of inorganic catalyst materials and electrochemical reduction of CO 2.
Background
The large carbon dioxide emissions generated by the overuse of fossil fuels lead to a series of environmental problems. In addition to the method of reducing emissions of carbon dioxide from sources, current biological and chemical processes for reducing carbon dioxide to chemicals/fuels have been well studied, wherein the electroreduction of CO 2 provides a viable and convenient route to the production of valuable carbon-based chemical feedstocks. However, the extremely stable c=o bond (806 KJ mol -1) in CO 2 and the competing aqueous hydrogen evolution reaction limit the activation of CO 2. In addition, CO 2 can be electrochemically converted to a variety of products due to differences in the number of transferred electrons and the catalytic mechanism, which presents great difficulties in the selection of the orientation. To date, various nanostructured Ag, au and pd-based electrocatalysts have been studied because of their high selectivity in aqueous solutions, low overpotential for carbon dioxide, but at high cost. Therefore, it is critical to develop a catalyst material that is low cost, has high activity, high selectivity, and has good stability.
On the other hand, optimization of electrolytic devices is the most critical strategy in practical application, and a flow cell based on a GDE structure is generally adopted at present, so that stable operation under ultra-high current density is difficult to realize in most cases. The influencing factors comprise the type of electrolyte, the concentration of the electrolyte, the pH value, the spacing between the anode and cathode plates and the like, and different influencing factors determine the current density and the type of products. The common electrolyte system adopts neutral or alkaline solution, because the alkaline environment is favorable for the activation of carbon dioxide and inhibits hydrogen evolution, but the carbon dioxide inevitably reacts with the electrolyte in diffusion to generate carbonate, so that the carbonate is difficult to fully utilize.
