Barriers of Electrochemical CO2 Reduction on Transition Metals

Shi, Chuan, Chan, Karen, Yoo, Jong Suk, Nørskov, Jens K.·2016·Organic Process Research & Development

Abstract

Theoretical investigations of electrochemical CO 2 reduction have received increasing interest due its potential impact on renewable energy storage. We use density functional theory with an explicit solvent model of the electrochemical interface to calculate activation energy barriers for various proton–electron transfer elementary reactions steps for CO 2 reduction on Au, Cu, and Pt surfaces. We find the protonation of unhydrogenated oxygen to be trivial compared to the protonation of carbon and R–OH species, which induces C–O scission. Our revised free energy diagram for the reduction of CO 2 to methane on Cu(211) includes these observations and suggests that the dominant pathway includes *CHOH and *CH as intermediates rather than *OCH 3 .

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.
