Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the preparation and application of a two-dimensional cobalt-molybdenum ring cluster crystalline electrode material having the property of electrocatalyzing nitrate reduction to synthesize ammonia. Background Art

[0002] Agricultural runoff and industrial wastewater contribute to the global concentration of nitrates (NO3 - ) pollution exceeds the standard, and traditional treatment technologies (such as reverse osmosis and biological denitrification) have problems such as high energy consumption and secondary pollution. At present, for most areas, it is urgent to treat the polluted water. Common nitrate nitrogen treatment methods include biological method, ion exchange method and electrocatalytic method. Among them, biological method is the most common technology for removing nitrate from water bodies. It uses microorganisms to convert NO3 - It is gradually reduced to N2: NO3- → NO2- → NO → N2O → N2 (denitrification pathway), but the residual N2O greenhouse gas accumulates as denitrification intermediates. The greenhouse effect of N2O is 265 times that of CO2. Electrocatalysis can convert NO3- into high-value-added ammonia (NH3), offering both environmental and economic benefits. Catalysts are key to improving their performance. Precious metal (Pt, Ru) catalysts are expensive and their scarcity restricts their large-scale application. Transition metal alloy (Cu-Co) catalysts have low selectivity (producing N2O and N2 as byproducts) and are easily deactivated under acidic conditions. Single-atom catalysts (Fe-NC) are complex to synthesize and have poor stability (<50 hours).

[0003] Polyoxometalates (POMs) (also known as polyoxometalates) are discrete multinuclear inorganic clusters formed by early transition metal ions (such as Mo, W, V, Nb, Ta, etc.) bridged by oxygen atoms. They belong to an important branch of metal oxoclusters (MOCs). Due to their highly regular structure and highly tunable performance, they have attracted much attention in the fields of chemistry, materials, energy, etc. They are composed of metal centers (such as W, Mo), bridging oxygen (μ2-O, μ3-O) and terminal oxygen (=O), and can contain heteroatoms (P, Si, B, As, etc.). They can maintain a discrete structure in aqueous solutions or organic solvents, have nanoscale sizes (1–3nm) and high negative charges (such as [P2W 18 O 62 ] 6– ), metal center (such as W 6+ / W 5+ 、Mo 6+ / Mo 5+ ) can undergo reversible electron transfer, making them suitable for electrocatalytic systems. However, polyoxometallic clusters have limited stability and are prone to decomposition under strong acidic or alkaline conditions. Structural manipulation or modification, such as the formation of multidimensional metal cluster crystalline materials by connecting transition metals (such as Co, Fe, and Ni), can enhance catalytic activity and stability.

[0004] Based on this, the present invention designs and develops a two-dimensional cobalt-molybdenum ring cluster crystalline electrode material with the property of electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonia synthesis, in the hope of solving the problems of low stability and electrocatalytic activity of nitrate reduction catalysts. By utilizing the coordination connection between reducing phosphomolybdic acid polyanions and active metal ions, a high-dimensional polymetallic oxygen cluster is constructed, which has good redox ability and high-density monodisperse metal active sites. Based on the above, we have prepared a two-dimensional cobalt-molybdenum ring cluster crystalline electrode material with the property of electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonia synthesis, providing a novel strategy for the preparation of electrocatalytic nitrate synthesis catalysts. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention aims to address the poor stability and catalytic performance of polyoxometallic clusters as electrocatalytic nitrate reducing agents in solution. To improve their electrocatalytic performance, the present invention provides a method for preparing a two-dimensional cobalt-molybdenum ring cluster crystalline electrode material and its application for electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonia synthesis.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] The molar ratio of sodium molybdate to cobalt chloride in step 1 is 1:(1.44-1.8);

[0009] The molar ratio of sodium molybdate to 1,3-bis(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene in step 1 is 14.8:1;

[0010] The molar ratio of sodium molybdate to ethanol, distilled water and phosphoric acid described in step 1 is 1:49:631:5.

[0011] 2. Preparation of a two-dimensional cobalt-molybdenum ring cluster crystalline electrode material with electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonia synthesis: Transfer the reaction solution prepared in step 1 to a 15mL polytetrafluoroethylene reactor and react at 180°C for 3 days. After cooling to room temperature, red diamond-shaped block crystals are obtained, i.e., a two-dimensional cobalt-molybdenum ring cluster crystalline electrode material with electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonia synthesis. The crystal appearance is red diamond-shaped block. The chemical formula of the substance is {(CoO6)(CoO5)2(CoO3)2[P 24 Mo V 16 Co 16 O147 ]}2·20H2O, the crystal system is monoclinic; the space group is P21 / n; the unit cell parameters are α=90°, β=99.6350(10), γ=90°,

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. This invention successfully prepared a cyclic cobalt-molybdenum cluster for the first time using 1,3-bis(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene organic ligand, cobalt chloride, and phosphomolybdic acid through a one-step hydrothermal synthesis method. Single crystal X-ray diffraction results show that the crystalline material prepared by this invention is a two-dimensional cobalt-molybdenum ring cluster crystalline material with the property of electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to synthesize ammonia. Its basic structural unit is PO4 3- and O 2- Sixteen hexacoordinated Co atoms and 16 pentacoordinated Mo atoms are connected to form a ring structure. Different structural units are connected by two metal Co atoms, and the staggered arrangement forms a two-dimensional planar structure.

[0014] Second, a two-dimensional cobalt-molybdenum ring cluster crystal with electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonia synthesis, prepared in this embodiment, was used as an electrode material, achieving a maximum FE of 95.84%. This provides a technical route for constructing polymetallic oxygen clusters with ring-like network structures to enhance their catalytic performance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
