چکیده

The light-assisted co-generation of carbon monoxide and hydrogen from carbon dioxide and water is reported. The combination of a homogeneous CO-evolving electrocatalyst and a heterogeneous H(2)-evolving photoelectrode surface provides for tunability of the H(2)/CO ratio. A total Faradaic efficiency of 102 ± 5% and a H(2)/CO ratio of 2:1 were achieved at a low homogeneous catalyst concentration (0.5 mM) in acetonitrile/water mixtures.

Preparation of Gd2O3 nanoparticles from a new precursor and their catalytic activity for electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO

The mononuclear Gd(III) complex, [Gd(L)3(H2O)5] (where L is alizarin yellow R (NaC13H8N3O5)), has been prepared in H2O under reflux condition. The Gd(III) complex has been characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods (UV–Vis and FT–IR). The Gd2O3 nanoparticles were prepared by the calcination of the Gd(III) complex in air at different temperatures up to 600 °C for 2 h. The calc...

Photochemical reduction of CO2 with ascorbate in aqueous solution using vesicles acting as photocatalysts.

We report a novel system of visible-light-driven CO2 reduction to CO in an aqueous solution, in which DPPC vesicles dispersed in the solution act as a photocatalyst using ascorbate (HAsc(-)) as an electron source. In the vesicles metal complexes [Ru(dtb)(bpy)2](2+) and Re(dtb)(CO)3Cl (dtb = 4,4'-ditridecyl-2,2'-bipyridyl) are incorporated, which act as a photosensitizer and a catalyst for CO2 r...

Effect of MgAl2O4 catalyst support synthesis method on the catalytic activity of nickel Nano catalyst in reverse water gas shift reaction

In this research effect of synthesis method of magnesium aluminate as support of Ni catalysts at the reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reaction was evaluated. The RWGS reaction is applied in Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation to Form Methanol via a Reverse Water-Gas Shift Reaction (CAMERE) process for the transformation of CO2 into methanol. The MgAl2O4 supports were prepared by sol-gel (M1), surfactant...
