Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of carbon dioxide electrocatalysis, and in particular relates to a thermal management air intake structure of a carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reactor. Background Art

[0002] Carbon dioxide is the main component that causes the greenhouse gas effect and is also an important resource. Converting carbon dioxide into other chemical raw materials and reducing the use of fossil fuels are important technical approaches to achieve carbon dioxide emission reductions. Formic acid is an important basic chemical raw material and is widely used in medicine, dyes, leather and other fields.

[0003] The prior art has the following problems: In the method of catalytically reducing carbon dioxide to formic acid by an electrochemical method in an aqueous solution, the reaction principle is: water undergoes an oxidation reaction at the anode to generate hydrogen ions and oxygen, the hydrogen ions migrate to the cathode through a mass transfer process, and a carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reduction reaction occurs at the cathode to generate formic acid and side reaction products. In the actual carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reaction, both the anode and the cathode are in an exothermic electrolysis process. This process must control the temperature of the environment at the anode and the cathode. Excessive temperature will greatly reduce the efficiency of the carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reaction. During the actual electrocatalytic reaction, when the anode and cathode environmental temperatures are too high, the amount of carbon dioxide raw material fed must be controlled to slow down the internal electrocatalytic reaction process. However, the lack of such a linkage structure of thermal management and intake control will result in the above-mentioned problems not being solved. Summary of the invention
