Abstract

Significance: Chemical storage of solar energy can be achieved by electrochemical reduction of CO 2 to CO and H 2 , and subsequent conversion of this mixture to fuels. Identifying optimal conditions for electrochemical cell operation requires knowledge of the CO 2 reduction mechanism and the influence of all factors controlling cell performance. We report a multiscale model for predicting the current densities for H 2 and CO formation from first principles. Our approach brings together a quantum-chemical analysis of the reaction pathway, a microkinetic model of the reaction dynamics, and a continuum model for mass transport of all species through the electrolyte. This model is essential for identifying a physically correct representation of product current densities dependence on the cell voltage and CO 2 partial pressure.

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.
