RESUMO

Recycled valuable energy production by the electrochemical CO2 reduction method has explosively researched using countless amounts of developed electrocatalysts. Herein, we have developed hybrid sandwiched Ga2O3:ZnO/indium/ZnO nanorods (GZO/In/ZnONR) and tested their photoelectrocatalytic CO2 reduction performances. Gas chromatography and nuclear magnetic spectroscopy were employed to examine gas and liquid CO2 reduction products, respectively. Major products were observed to be CO, H2, and formate whose Faradaic efficiencies were highly dependent on the relative amounts of overlayer GZO and In spacer, as well as applied potential and light irradiation. Overall, the present study provides a new strategy of controlling CO2 reduction products by developing a sandwiched hybrid catalyst system for energy and environment.

RESUMO

Understanding the electrochemical behaviors of Ce(III)/Ce(IV) ions is essential for better treatment, separation, and recycling of lanthanide (Ln) and actinide (An) elements. Herein, electrochemical redox behavior and interconversion of Ce(III)/Ce(IV) ions and their recoveries were demonstrated over newly developed thio-terpyridine-functionalized Au-modified carbon paper electrodes in acidic and neutral electrolytes. Cyclic voltammetry and amperometry were performed for the electrodes with and without thio-terpyridine functionalization. Ce oxide nanostructure recovery was successfully conducted by amperometry, and the electrodeposited nanostructured Ce materials were fully characterized by scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction crystallography, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Geometry optimization and the electronic energy state calculations were conducted by density functional theory at the B3LYP/GENECP level for the complexes of Ce(III) and Ce(IV) ions with the thio-terpyridine in an aqueous state. The present unique results provide valuable information on understanding redox behaviors of Ln and An ions for their recycling and treatment processes.

RESUMO

The electrochemical behaviors of rare earth (RE) ions have extensively been studied because of their high potential applications to the reprocessing of used nuclear fuels and RE-containing materials. In the present study, we fully investigated the electrochemical behaviors of RE(III) (La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Yb) ions over a Ni sheet electrode in 0.1 M NaClO4 electrolyte solution by cyclic voltammetry between +0.5 and -1.5 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). Amperometry electrodeposition experiments were performed between -1.2 and -0.9 V to recover RE elements over the Ni sheet. The successfully RE-recovered Ni sheets were fully characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The newly reported recovery data for RE(III) ions over a metal electrode provide valuable information on the development of the treatment methods of RE elements.
