RESUMO

Simultaneous electroreduction of CO2 and H2O to syngas can provide a sustainable feed for established processes used to synthesize carbon-based chemicals. The synthesis of MOx/M-N-Cs (M = Ni, Fe) electrocatalysts reported via one-step pyrolysis that shows increased performance during syngas electrosynthesis at high current densities with adaptable H2/CO ratios, e.g., for the Fischer-Tropsch process. When embedded in gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs) with optimized hydrophobicity, the NiOx/Ni-N-C catalyst produces syngas (H2/CO = 0.67) at -200 mA cm-2 while for the FeOx/Fe-N-C syngas production occurs at ≈-150 mA cm-2. By tuning the electrocatalyst's microenvironment, stable operation for >3 h at -200 mA cm-2 is achieved with the NiOx/Ni-N-C GDE. Post-electrolysis characterization revealed that the restructuring of the catalyst via reduction of NiOx to metallic Ni NPs still enables stable operation of the electrode at -200 mA cm-2, when embedded in an optimized microenvironment. The ionomer and additives used in the catalyst layer are important for the observed stable operation. Operando Raman measurements confirm the presence of NiOx during CO formation and indicate weak adsorption of CO on the catalyst surface.

RESUMO

The MnIII /MnII redox couple with a standard potential of +1.51 V versus the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) has attracted interest for the design of V/Mn redox flow batteries (RFBs). However, MnIII disproportionation leads to a loss of capacity, an increase in pressure drop, and electrode passivation caused by the formation of MnO2 particles during battery cycling. In this work, the influence of TiIV or/and VV on MnIII stability in acidic conditions is studied by formulating four different electrolytes in equimolar ratios (Mn, Mn/Ti, Mn/V, Mn/V/Ti). Voltammetry studies have revealed an ECi process for MnII oxidation responsible for the electrode passivation. SEM and XPS analysis demonstrate that the nature and morphology of the passivating oxides layer depend strongly on the electrolyte composition. Spectroelectrochemistry highlights the stabilization effect of TiIV and VV on MnIII . At a comparable pH, the amount of MnIII loss through disproportionation is decreased by a factor of 2.5 in the presence of TiIV or/and VV . Therefore, VV is an efficient substitute for TiIV to stabilize the MnIII electrolyte for RFB applications.
