摘要

本研究报告介绍了一种 pH 值中性 CO2 到 CO 零间隙电解槽的设计和诊断分析,该电解槽采用了掺杂镍氮的碳催化剂。该电池在低电压和高达 250 mA cm-2 的应用电流密度下可产生约 100% 的 CO 远电解效率和 40% 的总能效。它的特点是二氧化碳的低化学计量过量(λstoich)为 1.2,在单程二氧化碳转化率为 40% 时,电解槽出口流中的二氧化碳摩尔浓度约为 70%vol,稳定性超过 100 小时。在此,我们介绍实验性碳交叉系数(CCC),作为电解槽诊断的工具。CCC 描述了非催化酸碱 CO2 消耗量与催化产生的碱度之间的比率,从而提供了对普遍存在的离子传输性质和不希望的 CO2 损失的传输机制的深入了解。在盐沉淀和盐再溶解之间的振荡细胞淹没过程中,我们展示了 CCC 在基于传输的细胞失效方面的诊断价值。目前的电池动态诊断为改进二氧化碳电解槽设计提供了实用指南。优化 CO2 到 CO 电解槽对于开发串联电解工艺非常重要。现在,一种高效的无贵金属 CO2 转 CO 电解槽阴极设计可在低化学计量 CO2 过剩率下运行,出口流中的 CO 摩尔浓度为 70%,同时还可对其催化和质量传输特性进行诊断。

Design and diagnosis of high-performance CO2-to-CO electrolyzer cells
This work reports the design and diagnostic analysis of a pH-neutral CO2-to-CO zero-gap electrolyzer cell incorporating a nickel–nitrogen-doped carbon catalyst. The cell yields ~100% CO faradaic efficiency at applied current densities of up to 250 mA cm−2 at low cell voltage and 40% total energy efficiency. It features a low stoichiometric CO2 excess, λstoich, of 1.2 that yields a molar CO concentration of ~70%vol in the electrolyzer exit stream at 40% single-pass CO2 conversion, with over 100 h stability. Here we introduce the experimental carbon crossover coefficient (CCC) as a tool for electrolyzer cell diagnostics. The CCC describes the ratio between noncatalytic acid–base CO2 consumption and catalytically generated alkalinity, thereby offering insight into the nature of the prevalent ionic transport and transport mechanisms of undesired CO2 losses. We demonstrate the diagnostic value of the CCC in transport-based cell failure during oscillatory cell flooding between salt precipitation and salt redissolution. The present dynamic cell diagnostics provide practical guidelines toward improved CO2 electrolyzer designs. Optimizing CO2-to-CO electrolyzers is important for developing tandem electrolysis processes. Now an efficient precious metal-free CO2-to-CO electrolyzer cathode design allows operation under a low stoichiometric CO2 excess ratio that yields a molar CO concentration of 70% in the exit stream along with a diagnostic approach to its catalytic and mass transport characteristics.
