Solar-Thermal Ammonia Production Via a Nitride Looping Cycle [Slides]

Solar Thermal Ammonia Production has the potential to synthesize ammonia in a green, renewable process that can greatly reduce the carbon footprint left by conventional Haber-Bosch reaction. Ternary nitrides in the family A 3 B x N (A=Co, Ni, Fe; B=Mo; x=2,3) have been identified as a potential candidate for NH 3 production. Experiments with Co 3 Mo 3 N in Ammonia Synthesis Reactor demonstrate cyclable NH 3 production from bulk nitride under pure H 2 . Production rates were fairly flat in all the reduction steps with no evident dependence on the consumed solid-state nitrogen, as would be expected from catalytic Mars-van Krevelen mechanism. Material can be re-nitridized under pure N 2 . Bulk nitrogen per reduction step average between 25 – 40% of the total solid-state nitrogen. Selectivity to NH 3 stabilized at 55 – 60% per cycle. Production rates (NH 3 and N 2 ) become apparent above 600 °C at P(H 2 ) = 0.5 – 2 bar. Optimal point of operation to keep selectivity high without compromising NH 3 rates currently estimated at 650 °C and 1.5 - 2 bar. The next steps are to optimize production rates, examine effect of N 2 addition in NH 3 synthesis reaction, and test additional ternary nitrides.

Structure Activity Relationships for Second‐Coordination Sphere Functional Group Dependent CO 2 Reduction by Manganese Bipyridyl Electrocatalysts

Abstract A series of twelve second coordination sphere (SCS) functionalized manganese tricarbonyl bipyridyl complexes are investigated for their electrocatalytic CO 2 reduction properties in acetonitrile. A qualitative and quantitative assessment of the SCS functional groups is discussed with respect to the catalysts’ thermodynamic and kinetic efficiencies, and their product selectivities. In probing a broad scope of functional groups, it is clear that only the aprotic ortho‐arylester SCS is capable of promoting the highly desired low‐overpotential proton‐transfer electron‐transfer (PT‐ET) pathway for selective CO production. The ortho‐phenolic analogues cause an increase in overpotential with a product selectivity favoring H 2 evolution, consistent with a high‐overpotential pathway via the anionic [Mn−H] − intermediate. Alternative aprotic Lewis base functional groups such as trifluoromethyl, morpholine and acetamide are shown to also be capable of intermediate manganese hydride generation. The tertiary amine substituent, 2‐morpholinophenyl, exhibits a desirable product distribution characteristic of syn‐gas (CO : H 2 =30 : 48) with an impressive turnover frequency, while the secondary amine group, 2‐acetamidophenyl, induces a notable shift in selectivity with a faradaic yield of 55 % for the formate (HCO 2 − ) product. In addition to their catalytic properties, cyclic voltammetry and infrared spectroelectrochemistry (IR‐SEC) studies are presented to probe pre‐catalyst electronic properties and the two‐electron reduction activation pathway.

Highly selective electrocatalytic CO 2 reduction to ethanol by metallic clusters dynamically formed from atomically dispersed copper

Direct electrochemical conversion of CO 2 to ethanol offers a promising strategy of lowering CO 2 emission while storing energy from renewable electricity. However, current electrocatalysts offer only limited selectivity toward ethanol. Here we report a copper catalyst synthesized by a unique Cu-Li amalgm method over a commercial carbon support that achieved Faradaic efficiency (FE) higher than 91% at -0.7 V (RHE) and the active potential as low as -0.4 V (RHE) during direct electrocatalytic CO 2 -to-ethanol conversion. The catalyst also demonstrated stability over an extended period of operation. A strong correlation between the catalytic selectivity and the initial Cu atoms dispersion was found and Operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy identified a dynamic and reversible transformation from atomically dispersed copper atoms to Cu n (n = 3 and 4) under the electrochemical reaction. Frist-principles calculations further elucidate the possible catalytic mechanism of CO 2 reduction over Cu n .

Artificial Photosynthesis with Next Generation Molecular Catalysts

The objective of this project was to develop a new class of molecular photocatalysts for CO 2 reduction that will enable breakthrough advances in artificial photosynthesis. A major limitation of existing photocatalytic assemblies is that only a small fraction of absorbed photons are converted into fuel due to inefficiencies in electron transport between the different system components. In the case of molecular catalysts for reduction of CO 2 , highly reducing electron equivalents are required for catalysis. As a result, the electron flux between the photosensitizer and CO 2 reduction catalyst is heavily biased towards the photosensitizer. One method to direct the electron flux towards productive photocatalysis is to design molecular catalysts for CO 2 reduction that operate at more favorable potentials than existing catalysts. The conventional approach is to tune the potential of the catalyst through selection of the supporting ligands, however, this only leads to incremental improvements due to the existence of an unfavorable scaling relationship between the rate and potential of catalysis. Our hypothesis is that the catalytic rate and potential can be simultaneously enhanced using bimetallic catalysts in which one metal improves the potential of catalysis and the second metal increases the rate of catalysis. During the course of this project, a few studies reported some success in improving photocatalytic CO 2 reduction with heterobimetallic complexes, demonstrating the potential of this approach to catalyst design.

Steering the methanol steam reforming reactivity of intermetallic Cu–In compounds by redox activation: stability vs . formation of an intermetallic compound–oxide interface

To compare the inherent methanol steam reforming properties of intermetallic compounds and a corresponding intermetallic compound–oxide interface, we selected the Cu–In system as a model to correlate the stability limits, self-activation and redox activation properties with the catalytic performance. Three distinct intermetallic Cu–In compounds – Cu 7 In 3 , Cu 2 In and Cu 11 In 9 – were studied both in an untreated and redox-activated state resulting from alternating oxidation–reduction cycles. The stability of all studied intermetallic compounds during methanol steam reforming (MSR) operation is essentially independent of the initial stoichiometry and all accordingly resist substantial structural changes. The inherent activity under batch MSR conditions is highest for Cu 2 In, corroborating the results of a Cu 2 In/In 2 O 3 sample accessed through reactive metal–support interaction. Under flow MSR operation, Cu 7 In 3 displays considerable deactivation, while Cu 2 In and Cu 11 In 9 feature stable performance at simultaneously high CO 2 selectivity. Here, the missing significant self-activation is most evident in the operando thermogravimetric experiments, where no oxidation is detected for any of the intermetallic compounds. In situ X-ray diffraction allowed us to monitor the partial decomposition and redox activation of the Cu–In intermetallic compounds into Cu 0.9 In 0.1 /In 2 O 3 (from Cu 7 In 3 ), Cu 7 In 3 /In 2 O 3 (from Cu 2 In) and Cu 7 In 3 /Cu 0.9 In 0.1 /In 2 O 3 (from Cu 11 In 9 ) interfaces with superior MSR performance compared to the untreated samples. Although the catalytic profiles appear surprisingly similar, the latter interface with the highest indium content exhibits the least deactivation, which we explain by formation of stabilizing In 2 O 3 patches under MSR conditions.

A tailored multi-functional catalyst for ultra-efficient styrene production under a cyclic redox scheme

Abstract Styrene is an important commodity chemical that is highly energy and CO 2 intensive to produce. We report a redox oxidative dehydrogenation (redox-ODH) strategy to efficiently produce styrene. Facilitated by a multifunctional (Ca/Mn) 1− x O@KFeO 2 core-shell redox catalyst which acts as (i) a heterogeneous catalyst, (ii) an oxygen separation agent, and (iii) a selective hydrogen combustion material, redox-ODH auto-thermally converts ethylbenzene to styrene with up to 97% single-pass conversion and >94% selectivity. This represents a 72% yield increase compared to commercial dehydrogenation on a relative basis, leading to 82% energy savings and 79% CO 2 emission reduction. The redox catalyst is composed of a catalytically active KFeO 2 shell and a (Ca/Mn) 1− x O core for reversible lattice oxygen storage and donation. The lattice oxygen donation from (Ca/Mn) 1− x O sacrificially stabilizes Fe 3+ in the shell to maintain high catalytic activity and coke resistance. From a practical standpoint, the redox catalyst exhibits excellent long-term performance under industrially compatible conditions.

Selective Ligand Modification of Cobalt Porphyrins for Carbon Dioxide Electrolysis: Generation of a Renewable H2/CO Feedstock for Downstream Catalytic Hydrogenation

Catalytic hydrogenation is an attractive approach to produce green fuels and chemicals. The building blocks for these processes may be effectively produced from renewable power via direct electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide in an aqueous media. For the first time, the impact of increasing the local proton concentration of cobalt porphyrin was examined by synthesizing new cobalt porphyrins 2, Co(o-OCH3)TPP and cobalt porphyrin 3, Co(o-OH)TPP. Cobalt porphyrins coated on carbon paper converted carbon dioxide and water into a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide in an aqueous electrolyte at near neutral pH. Increasing the local proton availability of the commercial cobalt porphyrin 1, accelerates hydrogen generation under heterogeneous conditions across the range of potentials tested (-0.85 to -1.5 V vs. Ag/AgCl) and demonstrates high Faradaic efficiencies (ca. 90%) at low over-potentials (ca. 540 mV). The culmination of this work can help identify key parameters that facilitate generation of sustainable reagents for catalytic hydrogenation under practical and scalable conditions.

Computational discovery of a tetragonal MBene phase: diamond-shaped boron lattices, viable MAB precursors, and selective CO 2 reduction

MBenes are a class of two-dimensional transition-metal borides derived from layered MAB phases. Here, we use first-principles calculations to predict a new tetragonal MB (1 : 1) MBene phase featuring a diamond-shaped B–B lattice and systematically assess its phase stability, synthetic accessibility, and catalytic performance towards the CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR). Four tetragonal configurations are benchmarked against known hexagonal and orthorhombic phases, and a multi-tier screening identifies six robust members (CrB, FeB, MoB, WB, IrB, and PtB). Exploration of the I4/mmm MAB space reveals 11 viable precursors, including the experimentally synthesized Ir 2 ZnB 2 , which validates our screening approach. CO 2 RR free-energy diagrams show that CrB favors CH 3 OH while FeB, MoB, WB, IrB, and PtB preferentially yield HCOOH. The corresponding limiting potentials are competitive with, and in some cases superior to, those reported for state-of-the-art orthorhombic and hexagonal MBenes. These findings expand the MBene landscape by establishing a tetragonal phase with structural, synthetic, and catalytic promise.

Mechanistic Insights into Aldehyde Production from Electrochemical CO 2 Reduction on CuAg Alloy via Operando X-ray Measurements

CO 2 electrolysis converts the greenhouse gas CO 2 into valuable fuels and chemicals, such as carbon monoxide, ethylene, ethanol, etc. Currently, Cu is the only known monometallic catalyst capable of producing multicarbon products from electrochemical CO 2 reduction reaction (eCO2RR), while the poor selectivity limits its further use. It has been found that introducing Ag atoms into the Cu lattice can modulate product preference. However, the synergistic effects between Cu and Ag, and thus, the catalytic performance, are strongly influenced by catalyst morphology, electrolyzer configuration, reaction conditions, etc. Operando measurements can provide explicit information on the catalyst dynamic variation during the reaction, but their operation and analysis are challenging. Herein, we prepared CuAg multiphase alloy catalysts by magnetron sputtering, which allowed for investigating the intrinsic interaction between Cu and Ag. eCO2RR performance exhibited an improved selectivity toward carbonyls at the expense of hydrogen and hydrocarbons. The partially alloyed Cu and Ag phases were confirmed by operando X-ray diffraction. By means of combining operando X-ray measurements and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the preferred carbonyl production is attributed to the reduced electron density and compressive strain of Cu due to Ag incorporation, which leads to a deeper d-band center and therefore weakened intermediate adsorption and oxophilicity. In conclusion, this work provides evidence of the intrinsic structural and electronic interaction between Cu and Ag during eCO2RR. The obtained information will facilitate the design of bi/multi-phase metallic or alloy electrocatalysts.

Demonstration of no catalytical activity of Fe–N–C and Nb–N–C electrocatalysts toward nitrogen reduction using in–line quantification

Ammonia (NH 3 ) production via the electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) is a promising method for sustainable generation of this important chemical. Efforts are ongoing in finding an efficient, stable, and selective catalyst that will enable the reaction. However, progress is hindered in the field due to lack of reproducibility, most likely a consequence of reports of false-positive results due to improper measurement control and methods. In this study, we explore the NRR activity of a promising class of single atom catalysts, transition metal-nitrogen-carbon (M-N-C) electrocatalysts. Using a state-of-the-art in-line ammonia quantification methodology, with detection limit as low as 1 ppb for ammonia, we show that single atom Nb and Fe embedded in a stable carbon and nitrogen framework do not electrochemically reduce N 2 to NH 3 . Critically, this demonstrates that our experimental setup with in-line sequential injection analysis successfully excludes ammonia contamination from the gas supply and atmospheric sources, allowing for thorough and high-throughput examination of potential NRR catalysts.

Biomimetic Fe–Cu Porphyrrole Aerogel Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction

The development of bioinspired catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction is one of the most prominent pathways in the search for active materials to replace Pt-based catalysts in fuel cells. Herein, we report innovative bioinspired catalysts using a directed synthetic pathway to create adjacent Cu and Fe sites. This catalyst is composed of a covalent 3D framework in an aerogel form. Aerogels are high surface area and porous hierarchical structures that can allow the formation of ultrahigh active site density and optimized mass transport of reactants and products to and from the catalytic sites. The aerogel-based catalyst exhibits high performance in a half-cell in 0.1 M KOH, with an onset potential of 0.94 V vs RHE and half-wave potential of E 1/2 = 0.80 V vs RHE, high selectivity toward the four-electron reduction of oxygen to hydroxide anions, and high durability. These results are well-translated to the anion exchange membrane fuel cell (AEMFC), reaching an open circuit potential of 0.97 V and iR-corrected peak power density of 0.51 W cm –2 . Based on density functional theory calculations, the improved activity relative to the Fe-porphyrin and Cu-corrole is ascribed to the effect of the extended carbon network and the proximity of the metal sites.

Porosity as a Design Element for Developing Catalytic Molecular Materials for Electrochemical and Photochemical Carbon Dioxide Reduction

The catalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) using sustainable energy inputs is a promising strategy for upcycling of atmospheric carbon into value-added chemical products. This goal has inspired the development of catalysts for selective and efficient CO 2 conversion using electrochemical and photochemical methods. Among the diverse array of catalyst systems designed for this purpose, two- and three-dimensional platforms that feature porosity offer the potential to combine carbon capture and conversion. Included are covalent organic frameworks (COFs), metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), porous molecular cages, and other hybrid molecular materials developed to increase active site exposure, stability, and water compatibility while maintaining precise molecular tunability. This mini-review showcases catalysts for the CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR) that incorporate well-defined molecular elements integrated into porous materials structures. Selected examples provide insights into how different approaches to this overall design strategy can augment their electrocatalytic and/or photocatalytic CO 2 reduction activity.

Understanding the Origin of Highly Selective CO 2 Electroreduction to CO on Ni,N‐doped Carbon Catalysts

Abstract Ni,N‐doped carbon catalysts have shown promising catalytic performance for CO 2 electroreduction (CO 2 R) to CO; this activity has often been attributed to the presence of nitrogen‐coordinated, single Ni atom active sites. However, experimentally confirming Ni−N bonding and correlating CO 2 reduction (CO 2 R) activity to these species has remained a fundamental challenge. We synthesized polyacrylonitrile‐derived Ni,N‐doped carbon electrocatalysts (Ni‐PACN) with a range of pyrolysis temperatures and Ni loadings and correlated their electrochemical activity with extensive physiochemical characterization to rigorously address the origin of activity in these materials. We found that the CO 2 R to CO partial current density increased with increased Ni content before plateauing at 2 wt % which suggests a dispersed Ni active site. These dispersed active sites were investigated by hard and soft X‐ray spectroscopy, which revealed that pyrrolic nitrogen ligands selectively bind Ni atoms in a distorted square‐planar geometry that strongly resembles the active sites of molecular metal–porphyrin catalysts.

Olefin methylation over iron zeolites and the methanol to hydrocarbons reaction

The effect of olefin addition to a stream of dimethyl ether on the methanol homologation reaction is investigated using iron-substituted zeolites Fe-beta and Fe-ZSM-5. The reaction was investigated using plug-flow microreactors in the temperature range of 240–400 °C, at a total pressure of 0.239 MPa and a WHSV of 6.12 (g DME/ gcat -hr). For Fe-beta (Si/Fe= 9.2) catalysts, isobutene co-feeding almost doubles dimethyl ether (DME) consumption rate and shifts selectivity towards larger olefins with carbon numbers from 5 to 7. Addition of isobutene above 6.3%, however, resulted in a reduction of DME consumption rates, an effect assigned to the replacement of surface methoxy groups for adsorbed olefins in the zeolite pores. Below a temperature of 340 °C hydride-transfer rates are negligible; reaction rates are stable for over 5.5 h and the products consist almost exclusively of olefins and a small amount of methane. Above 360 °C the onset of catalytic hydride transfer processes is observed leading to fast catalyst deactivation rates and an increase in the concentration of aromatic species. Iron ZSM-5 (Si/Fe = 21.4) catalysts under similar reaction conditions consumes methanol faster than Fe-beta at approximately three times the TOF (on a per iron basis). The Fe-ZSM-5 catalyst was selective to a distribution of products (C5 to C8) as compared to Fe-beta which was selective to primarily C5 and C7. Co-feeding larger olefins (2-methyl-2-butene, 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene, 2,3,3-trimethyl-1-butene, and 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene) at a 3.9% olefin concentration over Fe-beta changed selectivity towards cracking products (C4 compounds such as isobutene). As the size of the olefin increases, a reduction of DME consumption rate is also observed. Here these results show that co-feeding olefins with DME over Fe-zeolites is a promising route to increase methylation rates at relatively low temperatures producing larger branched olefins and that the product distribution is highly dependent on the zeolite pore size and structure of the olefin.

Revisiting Competing Paths in Electrochemical CO 2 Reduction on Copper via Embedded Correlated Wavefunction Theory

We re-evaluate two key steps in the mechanism of CO 2 reduction on copper at a higher level of theory capable of correcting inherent errors in density functional theory (DFT) approximations, namely, embedded correlated wavefunction (ECW) theory. Here, we consider the CO reduction step on Cu(111), which is critical to understanding reaction selectivity. Here, we optimize embedding potentials at the periodic plane-wave DFT level using density functional embedding theory (DFET). All possible adsorption sites (adsites) for each adsorbate then are screened with ECW theory at the catalytically active site to refine the local electronic structure. Unsurprisingly, DFT and ECW theory predict different adsite preferences, largely because of DFT’s inability to properly situate the CO 2π* level. Differing preferred adsites suggest that different reaction pathways could emerge from DFT versus ECW theory. Starting from these preferred ECW theory adsites, we then obtain reaction pathways at the plane-wave DFT level using the climbing-image nudged elastic band method to determine minimum energy paths. Thereafter, we perform ECW calculations at the catalytically active site to correct the energetics at each interpolated structure (image) along the reaction pathways. Via this approach, we confirm that the first step in CO reduction via hydrogen transfer on Cu(111) is to form hydroxymethylidyne (*COH) instead of formyl (*CHO). Although the prediction to preferentially form *COH is consistent with that of DFT, the two theories predict quite different structural and mechanistic behaviors, suggesting that verification is needed for other parts of the mechanism of CO 2 reduction, which is the subject of ongoing work.

Cu 2 O/CuS Nanocomposites Show Excellent Selectivity and Stability for Formate Generation via Electrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide

Formate is an important value-added chemical that can be produced via electrochemical CO 2 reduction reactions (CO 2 RR). Cu 2 O-based catalysts have previously demonstrated decent activity for formate generation; however, they often suffer from poor electrochemical stability under reductive conditions. Here, in this paper, we report a new Cu 2 O/CuS composite catalyst that simultaneously achieves an excellent faradaic efficiency of 67.6% and a large partial current density of 15.3 mA/cm 2 at –0.9 V vs RHE for formate. Importantly, it maintains an average faradaic efficiency of 62.9% for at least 30 h at the same potential. The catalytic selectivity and stability for formate production outperform other Cu, CuS, and Cu 2 O catalysts.

Reversible and Selective CO 2 to HCO 2 − Electrocatalysis near the Thermodynamic Potential

Abstract Reversible catalysis is a hallmark of energy‐efficient chemical transformations, but can only be achieved if the changes in free energy of intermediate steps are minimized and the catalytic cycle is devoid of high transition‐state barriers. Using these criteria, we demonstrate reversible CO 2 /HCO 2 − conversion catalyzed by [Pt(depe) 2 ] 2+ (depe=1,2‐ bis (diethylphosphino)ethane). Direct measurement of the free energies associated with each catalytic step correctly predicts a slight bias towards CO 2 reduction. We demonstrate how the experimentally measured free energy of each step directly contributes to the <50 mV overpotential. We also find that for CO 2 reduction, H 2 evolution is negligible and the Faradaic efficiency for HCO 2 − production is nearly quantitative. A free‐energy analysis reveals H 2 evolution is endergonic, providing a thermodynamic basis for highly selective CO 2 reduction.

Constructing efficient CuO x -CeO 2 catalyst for NO reduction by CO: New insights into the structure–activity relationship

CuO-CeO 2 based materials have been recognized as promising substitutes for precious metal catalysts in emission control field due to their superior redox property and low cost. In this work, by optimizing the deposition process of CeO 2 and CuO onto γ-Al 2 O 3 , highly dispersed CuO clusters on unique CeO 2 -Al 2 O 3 support with small CeO 2 particles (7Cu-Ce/CeAl) were successfully constructed for efficient NO reduction by CO, which exhibited much higher NO removal efficiency and N 2 selectivity than CuO catalysts supported on γ-Al 2 O 3 (7Cu/Al) and conventional CeO 2 -Al 2 O 3 support (7Cu/CeAl). Moreover, H 2 O showed limited inhibition effect on the catalytic performance of 7Cu-Ce/CeAl catalyst. With the help of Raman spectra, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy, etc., it was clearly revealed that the abundant Cu + /Ce 3+ paired sites with surface synergetic oxygen vacancies (SSOV) on 7Cu-Ce/CeAl catalyst could effectively facilitate the adsorption and activation of CO and NO, thus significantly enhancing the NO removal efficiency.
