Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of electrocatalysts, and more specifically relates to the application of a regenerated electrode of an alkaline zinc ion battery in the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide. Using pure zinc flakes as the negative electrode of the nickel-zinc battery, the chemical composition and structure of the electrode material are adjusted by utilizing the charging and discharging states of the alkaline zinc-ion battery. Two kinds of regenerative zinc electrodes can be used as cathode catalysts for electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction, with their respective high electrocatalytic activity and selectivity; among them, the core-shell structure of zinc@zinc oxide nanowires has excellent carbon monoxide selectivity, and the layered two-dimensional ZnOH nanosheets exhibit preferential formic acid selectivity. The implementation of this invention can provide corresponding theoretical and technical support for the design and preparation of zinc electrodes with large surface area, and is expected to solve the problem of waste batteries, and is of great significance to promote the commercialization of electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrocatalysts, and more specifically relates to the application of a regenerated electrode of an alkaline zinc ion battery in the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide. Background technique [0002] Since the Industrial Revolution, with the increasingly large-scale application of fossil energy (coal, oil, and natural gas), human beings have also emitted more and more greenhouse gases, mainly carbon dioxide, into the atmosphere, causing global average temperature warming. Direct results and collateral consequences of melting Antarctic glaciers, rising sea levels, and mass extinctions. In response to this situation, leaders of nearly 200 countries and regions around the world reached an unprecedented consensus at the Paris Climate Conference at the end of 2015. To keep the increase in global average temperature within 2°C (relative to the pre-industrial era), to achieve this goal, the concentration of carbo...
