Pathways to enhance electrochemical CO2 reduction identified through direct pore-level modeling

Sophia Haussener, Etienne Boutin, Shuo Liu, Evan Fair Johnson

Electrochemical conversion of CO2 to fuels and valuable products is one pathway to reduce CO2 emissions. Electrolyzers using gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs) show much higher current densities than aqueous phase electrolyzers, yet models for multi-physical ...

New Insights into the Interface of Electrochemical Flow Cells for Carbon Dioxide Reduction to Ethylene

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Jing Gao, Dan Ren

The implementation of an electrochemical flow cell has enabled improved efficiency for CO2 reduction. However, in situ spectroscopic insights into the interface are still lacking. Here, we investigate a series of copper layers with different thicknesses on ...

Electrochemical Stability of the Reconstructed Fe3O4(001) Surface

Klaus Kern

Establishing the atomic-scale structure of metal-oxide surfaces during electrochemical reactions is a key step to modeling this important class of electrocatalysts. Here, we demonstrate that the characteristic (root 2x root 2)R45 degrees surface reconstruc ...

Crossover of liquid products from electrochemical CO2 reduction through gas diffusion electrode and anion exchange membrane

Andreas Züttel, Wen Luo, Jie Zhang

We reveal that a significant amount (>30%) of the liquid products from electrochemical CO2 reduction (CO2RR) in a flow reactor can cross the gas diffusion electrode (GDE) and anion exchange membrane (AEM). Crossover of volatile products through the GDE occ ...

Densely Packed, Ultra Small SnO Nanoparticles for Enhanced Activity and Selectivity in Electrochemical CO2 Reduction

Xile Hu, Jun Gu, Jeremy Luterbacher, Florent Emmanuel Héroguel, Jun Gu

Controlling the selectivity in electrochemical CO2 reduction is an unsolved challenge. While tin (Sn) has emerged as a promising non‐precious catalyst for CO2 electroreduction, most Sn‐based catalysts produce formate as the major product, which is less des ...

Combined Experimental-Numerical Analysis of Transient Phenomena in a Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting Cell

Sophia Haussener, Mikaël Dumortier

A combined experimental-numerical approach was used to study transient phenomena occurring in a photoelectrochemical cell using a membrane-separated porous TiO2-based photoanode and a dark Pt-based cathode. The effects of three parameters (pH in the anodic ...
