[0029] Example 1: CO 2 RR reaction system and reaction control method

[0030] CO 2 RR can be carried out in an H-type temperature-controllable electrolytic cell, and its structure is composed of an anode chamber, a cathode chamber and an electrolyte membrane, such as figure 1 shown. The catholyte, working electrode (Cu-based electrocatalytic material) and reference electrode (saturated calomel electrode, SCE) are built in the cathode chamber; the electrolyte membrane can be a proton exchange membrane (such as: Membrane); the anode compartment is placed with an auxiliary electrode (or counter electrode) and an anolyte composed of an inert oxygen-evolving material. figure 2 The schematic diagrams of the operating methods of periodic potential and current step are given respectively. Among them, T a with T c The sum is a redox cycle.

Abstract

The invention relates to a CO2 electroreduction reaction control method based on an electrode solution system. The CO2 electroreduction reaction control method can realize selective modulation of a product CH4. The electrode solution system is an interface system in which a copper-based electro-catalytic material (including copper foil, a copper net, nano-copper and carbon-loaded nano-copper particles) is in contact with an electrolyte solution. According to the interface system, the periodic step change of the potential is controlled within the temperature range of 0-60 DEG C, the selective preparation of the crystal face of the catalyst and the controllable preparation of the grain size can be realized, and the selective modulation of the CO2 electroreduction product is further realized.The modulation range of the methane Faraday efficiency is 5.5%-79%. The control method of the CO2 electroreduction reaction not only can modulate the selectivity of the product CH4, but also can improve the stability of the CO2 electroreduction reaction, and is suitable for large-scale application of the CO2 electroreduction technology.
