Operation of a Pressurized System for Continuous Reduction of CO2
Abstract
A Ag-based pressurized electrochemical system equipped for continuous reduction of CO2 is presented. At elevated pressures the quantity of CO which can be generated is 5 times that observed at ambient pressure with faradaic efficiencies as high as 92% observed at 350 mA cm-2. For operation at 225 mA cm-2 and 60 degrees C the cell voltage at 18.5 atm was 0.4 V below that observed at ambient pressure. Increasing the temperature further to 90 degrees C led to a cell voltage below 3 V (18.5 atm and 90 degrees C), which equates to an electrical efficiency of 50%.

Changes in product selectivity in gas phase CEM electrolyzers have been attributed to the influence of proton transport within the membrane, with poor proton transport favoring products requiring less proton transfers.
“Moreover, changes in product selectivity have been attributed to the influence of proton transport within the membrane, with poor proton transport favoring products requiring less proton transfers.[154]”

The maximum operating temperature of the membrane is typically 90 °C and should not be exceeded so as to avoid reduced proton mobility through the membrane and flooding due to increased water crossover from the anode.

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.
