Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for the preparation of a hydrocarbon by reducing C0 2 , in which C0 2 is reduced by means of a directly heated electrode to a hydrocarbon.
- the invention also provides a device for carrying out a corresponding method, a corresponding power plant and a system comprising this power plant and a vehicle with an internal combustion engine.
- the methods and devices can be used, for example, as a micro-energy system for decentralized energy supply.
- our system will preferably be compatible with existing heating systems and use educts that are largely available at low cost: ambient air, water, and surplus renewable energy.
- the invention therefore relates in particular to a process for preparing a hydrocarbon by reducing C0 2 , comprising steps in which C0 2 is reduced to a hydrocarbon by means of a directly heated electrode.
- the reduction can be enzymatic.
- the reduction can be carried out in several steps, wherein the reduction in at least one, preferably all, steps is catalyzed by an enzyme which is associated with a directly heated electrode.
- Enzyme immobilizations help to better position the enzymes on electrode surfaces for better electron uptake, thus enabling improved activities and product formation rates.
- immobilization also stabilizes the enzymes.
- the macromolecules are always subject to conformational changes, which contribute to a certain extent to their catalytic activity.
- external influences eg temperature or radiation
- Immobilization helps to bind the enzymes locally so that inactive conformational states are no longer taken and prevent aggregation.
- an enzyme in alginate can be immobilized on a carbon tissue and used on a working electrode to reduce C0 2 to formic acid (Wagner A. Enzyme Immobilization on Electrodes for C0 2 Reduction, 2013. Institute of Physical Chemistry). Alginate immobilization stabilizes the enzymes, but their positioning relative to the electrode is undirected.
- the enzymes could be attached during production corresponding amino acids that bind directly to substrates of the heated electrodes.
- steps of enzymes can be catalysed, which are each associated with an electrode which is heated directly to a temperature which is optimal for the respective reaction.
- the temperature of the respective electrode is optimized with regard to the substance conversion of the respective enzyme, but it is also possible to choose a lower temperature, if otherwise a sufficient stability is not guaranteed by one or more of the enzymes.
- the temperature of an electrode, with the formate dehydrogenase from Candida spp. is to be set to 35-40 ° C, in particular about 37-38 ° C.
- the temperature of this electrode is optimized in terms of total substance conversion, but it is also possible to choose a lower temperature, unless otherwise sufficient stability of one or more of the enzymes is not guaranteed.
- the reduction can be carried out in several steps, wherein the reduction in at least one, preferably all, steps is catalyzed in each case by an enzyme which thereby oxidizes a cofactor which is regenerated on a directly heated electrode, wherein the cofactor is selected from a group comprising NADH, NADPH, and FADH.
- the reduction can be catalyzed by formate dehydrogenase, aldehyde dehydrogenase and / or alcohol dehydrogenase.
- isolated enzymes are commercially available, they can be further optimized (Fielber S., Optimization of NAD-dependent formate dehydrogenase from Candida boidinii for use in biocatalysis, 2001).
- formate dehydrogenase e.g. an enzyme from Candida spp., in particular Candida biodinii (for example from Sigma-Adrich), which shows a temperature maximum of 35-40 ° C and works with NADH as cofactor.
- An enzymatic regeneration of the cofactor NADH on a directly heated electrode is optionally possible.
- C0 2 can be converted by a carbonic anhydrase to bicarbonate, wherein the carbonic anhydrase is optionally associated with a directly heated electrode.
- the reduction may be nonenzymatic on a heated electrode, the electrode preferably comprising a material selected from the group consisting of platinum, copper, titanium, ruthenium, and combinations thereof.
- a direct electrical heating of the working electrode can be made possible in the prior art by a so-called symmetrical arrangement or special filter circuits.
- a variant of the directly heated working electrode has a third contact for the connection to the electrochemical measuring device exactly in the middle between the two contacts for the supply of the heating current. By this arrangement disturbing influences of the heating current are suppressed to the measurement signals.
- the disadvantage here is mainly the complex structure with three contacts per working electrode, the thermal disturbance by the heat dissipating third contact and the complicated miniaturization.
- a symmetrical contacting takes place by means of a bridge circuit which enables direct heating (Wachholz et al., 2007, Electroanalysis 19, 535-540, in particular Fig. 3, Dissertation Wachholz 2009).
- the working electrode can be designed so that the temperature distribution at the surface of the working electrode is uniform (DE 10 2004 017 750).
- DE 10 2006 006 347 discloses advantageous directly electrically heatable electrodes.
- the directly heated electrode can be shaped as a spiral or helix or net or surface, in particular as disclosed in DE 10 2014 114 047.
- Suitable directly heated electrodes can be obtained, for example, from Gensoric GmbH (Rostock, DE).
- the directly heated electrode consists of an electrode material which is selected from the group comprising carbon, in particular glassy carbon or graphite, a noble metal, in particular gold or platinum, an optically transparent conductive material, in particular indium-doped tin oxide, copper, stainless steel and nickel.
- the invention also relates to a device in which a method according to one of the preceding claims expires or can run, characterized in that it consists of two electrodes and a membrane for the separation of the anodic and cathodic reaction or comprises these.
- reaction vessels can be connected in parallel and produce the total reaction product.
- the device may be constructed and used as a disposable or recyclable reactor.
- the invention also provides a device for producing a hydrocarbon by fixing C0 2 , comprising a) a directly heated electrode, with which preferably at least one enzyme is associated, which can catalyze a step of reducing C0 2 to a hydrocarbon, or with preferably, at least one cofactor which is capable of interacting with an enzyme capable of catalyzing a step of reducing C0 2 to a hydrocarbon and b) a device for introducing gaseous C0 2 which is capable of producing C0 2 in to introduce a reaction space in which it can come into contact with the directly heated electrode.
- This device generally comprises a further electrode and a membrane for separating the anodic and cathodic reactions.
- a device according to the invention may comprise 1-10,000 reaction spaces according to the invention with directly heated electrodes, preferably 100-5,000 or 500-2,000 or 800-1,200 Reaction vessels. A large number of reaction vessels can therefore be connected in parallel and produce the total of the reaction product.
- the device can be constructed as a one-way reactor or as a recyclable reactor and used.
- the gaseous CO 2 can be used or purified from ambient air or used in concentrated form, for example from a gas bottle.
- the invention also provides a power plant for the provision of energy in the form of electricity and / or a hydrocarbon, comprising i) an energy source, preferably a regenerative energy source based for example on photovoltaic, hydropower or wind power, preferably photovoltaic, ii) the device according to the invention, wherein for the production of one
- Hydrocarbon necessary energy from the energy source i) comes from, iii) a hydrocarbon storage, and iv) optionally, a hydrocarbon fuel cell for the production of electricity, or v) optionally a device for the combustion of hydrocarbon for
- the invention also provides a system comprising a power plant according to the invention and a vehicle selected from the group comprising cars, buses and motorcycles, the vehicle being equipped with an engine which is suitable, preferably optimized, for the combustion of a hydrocarbon, preferably methanol , is.
- a hydrocarbon preferably methanol
- the hydrocarbon is selected from the group comprising methanol and methane and formic acid and formaldehyde, preferably methanol.
- MES micro-energy System
- the project result is a micro-energy System (MES), which helps to save the surplus energy of the RES and to ensure the supply of energy mainly for heating on a small scale.
- MES micro-energy System
- this application is especially suited for domestic applications as it runs in mild environmental conditions (no high pressure, no high temperatures). Due to the selectivity of the basic new electro-enzymatic approach, there is no need for the electrolytic production of H 2 . In fact, all starting materials can be used directly from the environment (ambient air, tap water).
- the key process is the electro-biocatalytic conversion of C0 2 and electricity through a cascade of enzymatic reactions to methanol.
- the resulting methanol is used as fuel for the heating system. No external storage or infrastructure is needed.
- our system becomes an attractive alternative to centralized gas or energy supply.
- the target annual cost structure for the system and consumables should be comparable to the cost of annual gas consumption (reference 10 Ct / KwH natural gas in Germany in about 5-10 years).
- our solution enables the efficient storage of energy produced by renewable sources (such as solar).
- the key reaction cascade is carried out in a specially designed reactor. Because of our planned economic model, the main goal in this project is the development and realization of a disposable electro-enzymatic reactor in a cost-effective way (assembly, enzyme placement, wiring). It can, however a recyclable reactor can be used in which, for example, after the efficiency has lessened after purification, new enzymes are associated with the electrodes.
- the reactor will comprise directly heated electrodes on which the enzymes are immobilized in a way that allows electrons to be transferred from the electrical energy source to the electrobiocatalytic reaction. This is achieved by using large area electrodes in the beaker or by modifying the inside of the tube reactors.
- the key technologies are preferably integrated into a standalone system that can be integrated into existing domestic heating infrastructure.
- the reaction medium is separated from the product methanol e.g. separated by using a pervaporation method.
- the reaction medium is pumped in a loop while the methanol is produced and stored within the device.
- the reference electrode used was a silver-silver chloride electrode (Ag / AgCl) with 3 M KCl and, as counterelectrode, a 2 mm graphite rod. All reactions were performed at room temperature in 20 mL of an aqueous buffered electrolyte solution (0.05 M TRIS, pH 7.7) in a 100 mL reactor. For the bioelectrocatalytic synthesis of formic acid, the reactor was continuously gassed with C0 2 . Control experiments were carried out in argon-saturated electrolyte solutions without C0 2 . The functionality of the enzyme-alginate electrode was first checked by cyclic voltammetry and the reduction peak of C0 2 was determined at about -0.8 V.
- Table 2 Bioelectratic synthesis of formic acid from CO 2 at different temperatures on heated electrodes.
- the advantage of using heated electrodes lies in the fact that temperatures can be set directly on the electrode surface for optimum reaction conditions and it is not necessary to temper the entire electrolyte solution of a reactor, which improves the energy balance of electrocatalytic processes of any kind.
- the temperature in the reactor was continuously monitored during bioelectrocatalytic syntheses. The temperature remained constant at 22 ° C. On the one hand, this could be due to the continuous mixing of the electrolyte due to the continuous gassing of the electrolyte and the transport of heat to the environment being promoted. On the other hand, some of the heat from the heated electrodes could also have been conducted directly to the immobilized enzymes, which were thereby increasingly excited to conformational changes.
- the rate of synthesis of formic acid was optimized by directly heating the enzyme microelectrodes.
- the highest synthesis rates of 0.02-0.03 mg / h (based on a constant rate of synthesis according to Chronoamperogramm after the first 3 hours of the reaction) took place at 35 ° C and 40 ° C.
- the rate of synthesis of formic acid decreased both when the electrode temperature decreased to 22 ° C and when it increased to 45 ° C.
- both substrate uptake and product delivery to the enzyme microelectrode, as well as changes in conformational states of the immobilized enzyme necessary for the catalytic reaction mechanism proceeded optimally between 35 ° C and 40 ° C, a sixfold increase in conversion over room temperature (22 ° C).
