CuMnOS Nanoflowers with Different Cu+/Cu2+ Ratios for the CO2-to-CH3OH and the CH3OH-to-H2 Redox Reactions
نویسندگان
چکیده
A conservative CO2-Methanol (CH3OH) regeneration cycle, to capture and reutilize the greenhouse gas of CO2 by aqueous hydrogenation for industry-useful CH3OH and to convert aqueous CH3OH solution by dehydrogenation for the clean energy of hydrogen (H2), is demonstrated at normal temperature and pressure (NTP) with two kinds of CuMnOS nanoflower catalysts. The [Cu+]-high CuMnOS led to a CH3OH yield of 21.1 mmol·g-1catal.·h-1 in the CuMnOS-CO2-H2O system and the other [Cu+]-low one had a H2 yield of 7.65 mmol·g-1catal.·h-1 in the CuMnOS-CH3OH-H2O system. The successful redox reactions at NTP rely on active lattice oxygen of CuMnOS catalysts and its charge (hole or electron) transfer ability between Cu+ and Cu2+. The CO2-hydrogenated CH3OH in aqueous solution is not only a fuel but also an ideal liquid hydrogen storage system for transportation application.

High-enthalpy hydrogen adsorption in cation-exchanged variants of the microporous metal-organic framework Mn3[(Mn4Cl)3(BTT)8(CH3OH)10]2.
Exchange of the guest Mn2+ ions in Mn3[(Mn4Cl)3(BTT)8(CH3OH)10]2 (1-Mn2+; BTT=1,3,5-benzenetristetrazolate) with selected cations results in the formation of isostructural framework compounds 1-M (M=Li+, Cu+, Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+). Similar to the parent compound, the new microporous materials are stable to desolvation and exhibit a high H2 storage capacity, ranging from 2.00 to 2.29 wt ...
متن کاملExperimental investigation of single carbon compounds under hydrothermal conditions
The speciation of carbon in subseafloor hydrothermal systems has direct implications for the maintenance of life in present-day vent ecosystems and possibly the origin of life on early Earth. Carbon monoxide is of particular interest because it represents a key reactant during the abiotic synthesis of reduced carbon compounds via Fischer–Tropsch-type processes. Laboratory experiments were condu...

Photoreduction of CO2 with water into valuable organic compounds under concentrated sunlight as well as Xeor Hg-lamp irradiation was investigated using a Pt-loaded potassium hexatitanate (K2Ti6O13) photocatalyst or a composite catalyst in which the Pt-K2Ti6O13 photocatalyst was combined with a CO2 hydrogenation catalyst of Cu/ZnO. When the Pt-K2Ti6O13 photocatalyst was used under Xeor Hg-lamp i...
متن کاملSelective oxidation of methanol and ethanol on supported ruthenium oxide clusters at low temperatures.
RuO2 domains supported on SnO2, ZrO2, TiO2, Al2O3, and SiO2 catalyze the oxidative conversion of methanol to formaldehyde, methylformate, and dimethoxymethane with unprecedented rates and high combined selectivity (>99%) and yield at low temperatures (300-400 K). Supports influence turnover rates and the ability of RuO2 domains to undergo redox cycles required for oxidation turnovers. Oxidative...
متن کاملSite titration with organic bases during catalysis: selectivity modifier and structural probe in methanol oxidation on Keggin clusters.
Catalytic reactions often require several types of sites with distinct functions, and the relative abundance of these sites influences the rate and selectivity of desired reactions. Heteropolyacid clusters with Keggin structures, which contain acid and redox functions, 2] have recently emerged as interesting catalysts for organic reactions involving bifunctional pathways. We recently discovered...
