Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of alkaline electrolyzed water, and specifically to an electrolyzed water catalyst, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Globally, there has been an increasing emphasis on renewable energy and carbon emission reduction. Against this backdrop, green hydrogen, as a clean energy carrier, has gradually drawn wide attention in terms of its production and application (Nature Energy. 3 (2018) 773 - 782). Electrolyzed water can utilize the electrical energy generated by waste heat or be coupled with renewable but intermittent energy to achieve the production of high-purity hydrogen. The alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) generally has slow reaction kinetics because additional energy is required to break the water dissociation energy barrier. For the alkaline HER reaction, due to the slow water dissociation rate, even the most advanced HER catalyst, platinum (Pt), has an activity two to three orders of magnitude lower in neutral / alkaline media than in acidic media (Nat Commun. 15, (2024) 448 - 458), which severely restricts the commercial application of alkaline electrolyzed water hydrogen production technology. Therefore, improving the water dissociation ability of electrocatalysts is crucial for enhancing alkaline hydrogen evolution kinetics.
[0003] In addition, the use of non-platinum-based catalysts can greatly reduce the cost of electrolyzed water, thereby further reducing the cost of hydrogen production. For example, cluster catalysts, due to their unique adjustable coordination environment and metal-support interaction characteristics, can precisely regulate the electronic structure of metal centers, significantly increase the density of active sites, and promote the electron transport process. Moreover, cluster catalysts, with their high atomic utilization efficiency, can greatly reduce the noble metal loading, thus significantly reducing the catalyst cost.
[0004] During the alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction process, the regulation of the microenvironment at the interface between the catalyst and the electrolyte is particularly crucial. Although there have been studies optimizing the electronic structure of active sites and the adsorption energy of reaction intermediates through various material structure regulation strategies, the pH kinetics limitation in alkaline media still restricts its practical application. Currently, the regulation of alkali metal ions on interfacial water is usually carried out in the electrolyte, exploring the effects of different cations in the electrolyte on the interfacial water structure and double electric layer, etc., and deeply exploring the influencing factors of pH kinetics from a theoretical aspect. However, on the one hand, the relevant research on the electrolyte cannot be used to improve the catalyst, so the relevant research on the regulation of the surface microenvironment of the catalyst by alkali metal cations remains blank. On the other hand, current relevant catalysts are rarely applied in AEMWE. In addition, the activity and stability of cluster-type alkaline hydrogen evolution catalysts in AEMWE are limited, especially in terms of long-term stability, and most can only operate within 200 h, which is far from the goal of industrial application. Summary of the Invention
