Problems solved by technology

The main drawback of this model is caused by the low CO in the liquid phase 2 Solubility and low CO selectivity problems caused by the difficulty of liquid mass transfer inside the electrode, electrolyte consumption caused by electrolyte mass transfer between the cathode and anode chambers and unstable electrolyte concentration in the cathode and anode chambers, as well as corrosion and erosion of the electrolyte solution Insufficient long-term stability of the electrode and high anti-corrosion requirements of pipeline equipment caused by the problem
The existence of these defects makes it difficult for the dual electrolyte solution feeding mode to enter large-scale industrial applications

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electrochemical technology, in particular to electroreduction of CO 2 Apparatus and methods. Background technique [0002] with CO and H 2 Syngas, which is mainly composed of synthetic gas, is the basic raw material for the production of high value-added fuels and chemicals by industrial Fischer-Tropsch synthesis process. Syngas is mainly produced through the coal gasification route, but a large amount of CO is produced as a by-product 2 , not only caused a considerable waste of carbon resources, but also caused considerable pressure on carbon emission reduction. CO can be converted electrochemically 2 Converting to CO is not only an environmentally friendly and clean way to reduce carbon emissions, but also a way to increase the production capacity of syngas 2 It is a way of resource reuse, and it is also an energy storage method to support renewable energy power generation. But as an attractive new technolo...
