Copper-catalyzed cycloalkane oxidation using H2O2 as an oxidant was investigated under mild conditions. The copper catalysts studied in this work ranged from commercially-available copper(II) salts to copper(II) complexes containing polypyridyl ligands. Va ...

WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2023

Under periodic lean/rich operation generated by repeated O2 pulses (O2-dithering), the abatement of CH4 and NO is enhanced compared to static operation. However, it is not well understood how the dithering parameters (pulse amplitude and frequency) affect ...

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

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

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 ...

Tandem effect of Ag@C@Cu catalysts enhances ethanol selectivity for electrochemical CO2 reduction in flow reactors

Andreas Züttel, Thi Ha My Pham, Cedric David Koolen, Wen Luo, Jie Zhang, Mo Li, Youngdon Ko, Liping Zhong

CO-selective metals (e.g., Ag) on Cu catalysts improve the selec-tivity of multi-carbon (C2+) products in electrochemical CO2 reduc-tion. However, the origin of the improvement remains unclear due to the convolution of tandem and interface effects. Here, A ...

Investigation of Ethylene and Propylene Production from CO2 Reduction over Copper Nanocubes in an MEA-Type Electrolyzer

Raffaella Buonsanti, Valery Okatenko

Previous work carried out in fully liquid environ-ments and at low current densities has demonstrated that highly uniform faceted copper nanocrystals display different selectivity profiles in CO2 reduction compared to polycrystalline copper. As part of ong ...
