Abstract

The invention relates to an electrochemical reduction CO2 electrolytic tank using a bipolar membrane as a diaphragm and an application of the electrochemical reduction CO2 electrolytic tank. The electrolytic tank comprises a cathode electrolysis compartment, cathode liquor, an anode electrolysis compartment, anolyte and the bipolar membrane for dividing the cathode electrolysis compartment and the anode electrolysis compartment. The electrode materials of the cathode electrolysis compartment include Pb (Plumbum), In (Indium) and Cu (Copper) etc, and the cathode liquor is an alkaline aqueous solution; and the electrode materials of the anode electrolysis compartment include Pt (Platioum) and Pd (Palladium) etc, and the anolyte is an acidic aqueous solution containing iodate. The hydroxy radicals in the cathode electrolysis compartment and the protons in the anodic electrolysis compartment are diffused to the bipolar membrane to generate water so as to form a voltage drop, so that the working voltage in the electrolytic tank is reduced. Compared with an anodic reaction that water and the electricity are oxidized to generate oxygen, the iodide ions are oxidized to generate an iodine elementary substance with low potential, small overpotential and quick dynamic process, so that the working voltage in the electrolytic tank is further reduced. CO2 is electrically reduced in a cathode compartment so as to generate small molecular fuels, such as formate, methanel, and methane; and the iodide ions are electrically oxidized to generate the elementary substance iodine in an anode compartment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical fields of energy storage, resource utilization of carbon dioxide and alternative energy, and specifically relates to an electrolytic cell with a bipolar membrane as a diaphragm and a method for electrochemically reducing CO 2 in the application. Background technique [0002] Carbon dioxide plays an important role in the Earth's carbon cycle. With the rapid development of science and technology, especially after the industrial revolution, human beings widely use fossil fuels and emit a large amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which destroys the earth's carbon cycle process, makes the content of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere continue to increase, and causes the "greenhouse effect". Lead to global warming and increased frequency of extreme weather. Therefore, more and more attention has been paid to effectively controlling the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and protecting the living...
