Effect of Cations on the Electrochemical Conversion of CO2to CO
Open accessAbstract
We investigate the influence of electrolyte composition on the electrochemical reduction of CO 2 to CO in an electrochemical flow reactor. Specifically, we study the effect of alkali cations on the partial current densities of the two products: CO and H 2 . We report that the presence of large cations such as cesium and rubidium in the electrolyte improves the partial current density for CO production. Furthermore, large cations suppress H 2 evolution, resulting in high faradaic yields for CO production. For example, with a large cation, specifically CsOH, a partial current density of 72 mA/cm 2 was obtained at a cathode potential of −1.62 V vs Ag/AgCl. In contrast, in the presence of a small cation, specifically sodium, a partial current density of only 49 mA/cm 2 was achieved at a much more negative cathode potential of −2.37 V vs Ag/AgCl, with NaBr. The effect of cation size on product selectivity for CO production can be explained by the interplay between the level of cation hydration and the extent of cation adsorption on Ag electrodes.

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.
