Electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide: effect of the cell and of the operating parameters on the performances of the process.

2017

Recycling technologies of CO2 allow to introduce renewable energy in the chemical and energy chain, storing a renewable energy in the chemical form. In this context, electrochemical conversion of CO2 is considered one of the more interesting approaches, using excess electric energy from intermittent renewable sources. (1) Furthermore, products can be selectively controlled by changing the operating conditions of electrolysis. In particular, in the last years, an increasing attention has been devoted to the electrochemical conversion of CO2 to formic acid or formate in water. (2,3,4) The main hurdle of the reduction of CO2 from water solution is the low CO2 solubility in water. In this work,…

Electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide to formic acid: on the road to applicative scale

2018

In this context, electrochemical reduction of CO2 is considered one of the more attractive pathway to convert CO2, because the products can be selectively controlled by changing the operative conditions of the electrolysis. In the last years, an increasing attention has been devoted on the electrochemical conversion of CO2 to formic acid in water [2,3]. The main hurdle of the reduction of CO2 from water solution is the low CO2 solubility in water. In this work, the effect of some operating parameters, including pressure, current density, and flow rate, on the conversion of CO2 at tin flat cathodes to formic acid was studied using a pressurized filter-press cell with a continuous recirculati…
