Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a Ni-N-C catalyst for a carbon dioxide electroreduction reaction. The method comprises the following steps: dissolving zinc nitrate and nickel nitrate in methanol according to a certain ratio, adding a certain amount of 2-methylimidazole methanol solution while stirring, and stirring the mixture at room temperature for 12-36 hours; centrifuging and washing with methanol for 3 times, drying under vacuum to obtain a solid powder; taking a certain amount (0.1-0.8g) of the solid powder in a tube furnace, heating to 600-1000 DEG C at a certain flow velocity and under the protection of inert gas, maintaining for 1 to 12 hours, and cooling to room temperature to obtain the Ni-N-C catalyst. The catalyst body is amorphous carbon with N and Ni uniformly doped in a carbon skeleton, is applied to carbon dioxide electroreduction, and has high CO Faraday efficiency and current density.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a carbon dioxide electroreduction reaction, in particular to a Ni-N-C catalyst which can be used in the carbon dioxide electroreduction reaction and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] According to the "World Energy Outlook 2016" report released by the US Energy Information Administration, fossil energy will still occupy a dominant position in the energy structure in the next ten years. The extensive exploitation and use of fossil energy is accompanied by a large amount of carbon dioxide emissions. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has reached 400ppm. Excessively high carbon dioxide concentration will bring about a series of environmental problems such as global warming and ocean acidification. Therefore, technologies for capturing, storing, converting, and utilizing carbon dioxide have received extensive attention. Carbon dioxide electroreduction technology can use the electric ener...
