Operando Observation of (Bi)carbonate Precipitation during Electrochemical CO2 Reduction in Strongly Acidic Electrolytes
Corsin Battaglia, Nukorn Plainpan, Alessandro Senocrate
Precipitation of (bi)carbonate salts during the electrochemical CO2 reduction (CO2RR) has been identified as a major cause of degradation and one of the main challenges to be overcome before implementing this technology on the industrial scale. Recently, t ...
Amer Chemical Soc2024Toward Sustainable and Cost-Effective CO2 Conversion Processes to Propylene Carbonate Based on Ionic Liquids
The use of ionic liquids (ILs) for CO2 capture and utilization into a valuable product is attracting interest even though literature evaluating their sustainability is scarce. A liquid-liquid extraction (LLE)-based separation is recently proposed as an alt ...
WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2022Method and system for producing a carbonate-containing species-rich, nitrogen-containing species-free solution
Lyesse Laloui, Dimitrios Terzis
A method for producing a carbonate-containing species-rich, nitrogen-containing species-free solution from a urea-rich solution is proposed. The method comprising the steps of: providing a first reservoir comprising a first mixture including urea and a cat ...
2021Catalyst design for C-O bond hydrogenolysis of renewable materials.
Anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions leading to climate change require to use of renewable carbon sources such as CO2 and biomass which differ from fossil resources by having a higher number of oxygen atoms. Therefore, catalytic C-O bond cleavage will pl ...
EPFL2020Copper battery for heat to power conversion and energy storage
An important part of the electricity production relies on heat conversion. Indeed power plants burn fuels like natural gas, coal or use nuclear fission to produce heat that can be transformed into electricity through a thermodynamic cycle and the mechanica ...
EPFL2020Palladium-Catalyzed Carboxy-Alkynylation of Propargylic Amines Using Carbonate Salts as Carbon Dioxide Source
Jérôme Waser, Phillip Gulliver Dominic Greenwood
A palladium-catalyzed multicomponent reaction of propargylic amines, alkynyl bromides and cesium hydrogen carbonate to access oxazolidinones is reported. In contrast to previous reports, only a slight excess of cesium hydrogen carbonate is used as a surrog ...
2019The role of malachite nanorods for the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to C-2 hydrocarbons
Emad Oveisi, Jie Zhang, Kun Zhao, Mariana Spodaryk
The electrochemical reduction of CO2 to higher hydrocarbons is a very challenging process that has high potential for the storage of large amounts of renewable energy with a high gravimetric and volumetric energy density. The distribution of hydrocarbons f ...
