Beyond the catalyst: How electrode and reactor design determine the product spectrum during electrochemical CO2 reduction
Open accessAbstract
As a remedy to the increasing concentration of greenhouse gases and depleting fossil resources, the electrochemical CO2 reduction closes the carbon cycle and provides an alternative carbon feedstock to the chemical and energy industry. While most contemporary research focuses on the catalyst activity, we emphasize the importance of the reactor design for an energetic efficient (EE) conversion. A design strategy for an electrochemical membrane reactor reducing CO2 to hydrogen, carbon monoxide (CO) and ethylene (C2H4) is developed. We present the stepwise development from an H-cell like setup using full-metal electrodes to a cell with gas diffusion electrodes (GDE) towards high current efficiencies (CE) at high current densities (CD). At 300 mA.cm−2 a CO-CE of 56% for a Ag GDE and a C2H4-CE of 94% for a Cu GDE are measured. The incorporation of the developed GDEs into a zero-gap assembly eliminates ohmic losses and maximizes EE, however the acidic environment of the ion exchange membrane inhibits CO2 reduction. As a compromise a thin liquid buffer layer between cathode and membrane is a prerequisite for a highly active conversion. We demonstrate that industrial relevant CDs with high CEs and EEs can only be achieved by moving beyond today’s research form catalyst development only to an integrated reactor design, which allows to exploit the viable potential of electrochemical CO2 reduction catalysts.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
