Problems solved by technology

[0005] Although the gas diffusion electrode can alleviate the mass transfer polarization to a certain extent, it is still affected by the CO 2 The limitation of low solubility in aqueous solution, and the hydrogen evolution side reaction will be intensified with the increase of the reaction area, so that the CO cannot be effectively improved. 2 conversion rate of
However, the use of organic solvents, including ionic liquids, as catholytes is not only expensive, but also some reagents are toxic and involve environmental issues, so they are not suitable for large-scale applications.

Abstract

The invention discloses an electrolytic cell for electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide and its application, comprising a cathode chamber, an anode chamber and a gas-liquid separator; It is a container with an open lower end, the upper cavity is placed above the lower cavity, and a first flange is provided at the opening ends of the two cavities, and the two cavities are connected through the first flange; it is different from the traditional H Compared with the type electrolytic cell, it can significantly improve the conversion rate of carbon dioxide, increase the electrochemical reaction speed, and at the same time, it is easy to operate and convenient to calculate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of carbon dioxide electrochemical reduction, in particular to an electrolytic cell for electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide. Background technique [0002] Electrochemical reduction of CO 2 (ERC) technology is the use of electricity to convert CO 2 Reduction to various organic chemicals to achieve CO 2 A technology for resource utilization. with other COs 2 Compared with the conversion technology, the outstanding advantage of the ERC technology is that water can be used as the hydrogen source for the reaction, and CO can be realized at normal temperature and pressure. 2 High-efficiency conversion, so there is no need for energy consumption caused by hydrogen production, heating, and pressurization required by chemical conversion technology, and the investment in equipment is small. [0003] Currently, in CO 2 The electrolytic cell used in the electrochemical research is a conventional H-type, as ...
