The invention discloses a method and a
system for synthesizing CO through conversion of CO2 promoted by an
electric field, a
mixed gas of CO2 and H2 is used as a
raw material gas, and a
metal rod which is connected with a direct-current power supply and applies a direct-
current electric field to a catalyst is arranged; the
raw material gas is subjected to a catalytic reaction under the action of a catalyst and a direct-
current electric field to generate CO and H2O. According to the method, the activity of the catalyst is improved by utilizing the
electric field, so that the conversion rate of CO2 and the selectivity of CO in the RWGS reaction are improved; the
electric field intensity can be changed by changing an input current value, so that the catalyst activity is regulated; not only is CO2 emission reduced, but also CO2
resource utilization for preparation of high-value chemicals is realized. A catalyst
bed layer of the
system is arranged between two
electrode plates connected with a direct-current high-
voltage power supply, the two
electrode plates are connected through a
metal rod, an electric field is applied to the catalyst
bed layer, current flows on the catalyst
bed layer, the activity of the catalyst bed layer in a reactor is promoted to be improved by utilizing the electric field, and CO2 can be effectively promoted to be converted into CO.
