TiO2/TiN纳米管异质结用于光电催化CO2还原:氮辅助活性氢机制(英文)

利用太阳能将CO₂转换为高附加值的化学品是解决化石燃料消耗过快与CO₂排放过度问题的可行性方案.光电催化CO₂还原可以模拟自然光合作用将CO₂还原为多碳产物(C₂₊).然而,光电催化剂的带隙与太阳辐射光谱不匹配以及载流子的快速复合是限制人工光合作用效率的关键因素.前期研究表明,缺陷工程可有效地增加催化剂活性位点,减小半导体的带隙并增强对光子的捕获能力;而异质结的构筑则可有效提升载流子的分离效率.因此,构建具有较好可见光响应的高效半导体异质结催化剂有望实现催化材料对CO₂还原能力和产物选择性的提升.本文通过对金属钛板进行电化学阳极氧化,氨气气氛煅烧得到Ti N,然后原位进行部分氧化构筑出结构新颖的Ti O₂/Ti N纳米管异质结材料,再进行配体和钯量子点修饰,得到更加高效的催化电极材料Pd/R-Ti O₂/TiN,并在三电极系统中研究了其光电催化CO₂还原的性能.通过扫描隧道电子显微镜、透射电...     

光系统Ⅱ光驱动CO2同化的光合作用(英文)

光合作用作为地球上最重要的化学反应,是一切生命活动赖以生存的基础.光合作用分为光反应和暗反应两个阶段.通常认为,光反应阶段产生O₂,暗反应阶段CO₂被还原(也称“CO₂同化”).尽管这一观点已被公众所熟知,但也存在诸多疑点,一些科学家(包括1931年的诺贝尔生理学或医学奖得主OttoWarburg)认为, CO₂也可能在光反应阶段作为反应底物参与了产氧并被还原.然而,该观点至今没有在实验上获得充足的证据支持.那么,在光反应阶段是否能够进行CO₂同化？如果能够发生,产物和机理是什么？毫无疑问,这些科学问题具有十分重要的研究价值,对这些问题的探索能帮助我们更加充分认识光合作用机制.然而,自上世纪十年代以来,相关研究已陷入停滞状态.为了解开光合作用领域的这个重要科学谜团,即在光合作用中CO₂是否能通过光反应被还原,本文选取三类不同层次的光合作用体系(小球藻、叶绿体、PSII中心复合体)为研究对象,结合原位质谱、气相色谱和同位素标记等手段,设计了一系列实验,排除了...

无碱CO2加氢高效制甲酸Pd/g-C3N4催化剂的单原子和纳米簇的协同作用(英文)

气候变化威胁人类的生存.化石燃料的过度使用导致CO₂持续排放是引起全球变暖和气候变化的主要因素,须尽快减少CO₂排放.捕获CO₂并将其转化为高附加值的燃料和化学品从而循环利用是减少CO₂净排放的有效措施.其中, CO₂催化加氢制甲酸(HCOOH)是碳捕获与利用(CCU)的有效途径之一,其产物HCOOH可用于防腐剂、牲畜饲料抗菌剂和食品添加剂,也可作为氢载体和直接甲酸燃料电池的燃料.目前,工业上生产HCOOH的工艺包括两个步骤:甲醇和CO在强碱条件下反应生成甲酸甲酯(HCO₂CH₃),随后水解为HCOOH.该工艺利用来自化石燃料的两种原料,排放出大量CO₂,同时在水解步骤中使用了过量的酸性水,因此对生态环境产生一定的危害.近年来,以CO₂为可再生原料合成HCOOH被广泛研究,人们探索了电化学、光化学、生物和热化学反应等多种途径将CO₂还原为HCOOH,以期实现CO     

CO2在α-U(001)表面的吸附和解离

采用广义梯度密度泛函理论研究了0.25ML覆盖度下CO₂在α-U（001）表面上的吸附和解离,得到了CO₂的稳定吸附构型和吸附能,确定了CO₂的解离过渡态和解离能垒,探讨了CO₂与表面U原子的相互作用本质.结果表明CO₂趋向以C（O）-U多键结合方式在α-U（001）面发生强化学吸附,吸附能为1.24-1.67 eV;C-O键的活化程度依赖于表面电子向CO₂发生转移的程度.CO₂与表面U原子的相互作用主要来自于U原子电子向CO₂最低空轨道（LUMO）2π_u转移,以及CO₂π_u/1π_g/3σ_u-U 6d轨道间杂化而生成新的化学键.以形成3个C-U键和6个O-U键模式在穴位1和穴位2上发生吸附的CO₂（H1-C₃O₆和H2-C₃O₆）的解离吸附能分别为3.15和3.13 eV,解离能垒分别为0.26和0.36 eV,预示着吸附CO₂分于易于解离形成CO分子和O原子.

铁基催化剂在COx加氢制高附加值烃反应中的应用

化石燃料的广泛使用导致大气中CO₂的排放量急剧增加,进而引起全球变暖和海洋酸化等一系列问题.CO加氢(费托合成)反应是利用非石油来源的原料生产液体燃料和化学品的一种重要途径.同时,利用可再生的H₂将CO₂转化为高附加值的产品有利于减少对化石燃料的依赖,减轻由于大气中CO₂浓度过高带来的负面影响.开发新型、高效、稳定的催化剂是费托合成和CO₂加氢制高附加值烃的关键因素之一.Fe基、Co基和Ru基催化剂是费托合成中常用的催化剂.而在CO₂加氢反应中,Co基和Ru基催化剂上主要发生甲烷化反应,几乎没有长链烃生成.Fe基催化剂在费托合成和CO₂加氢反应中均表现出优异的催化生成长链烃性能.同时,Fe储量丰富和价格便宜的特点也促进Fe基催化剂在两个反应中的广泛应用.一般认为,在Fe基催化剂上CO₂通过逆水煤气变换反应生成CO,CO通过费托合成反应继续加氢生成烃类.因此,CO₂加氢反应和费托合成反应有相似之处,同时也有较大的区别.本文从活性相、助剂和载体的角度综述了各组分在Fe基催化剂催化CO/CO₂加氢反应中的作用,总结了其中的区别与联系.催化剂在反应中会发生复杂的相变过程,形成多种铁物种;其中,碳化铁(χ-Fe₅C₂,ε-Fe₂C,Fe₇C₃和θ-Fe₃C)在费托合成反应中是C-C偶联的活性相,但对于θ-Fe₃C现还存在一些争议.在CO₂加氢反应中Fe₃O₄催化逆水煤气变换反应,碳化铁催化CO加氢反应.金属助剂对CO/CO₂加氢反应的促进作用较为相似,在两个反应中碱金属的促进作用最为明显.费托合成反应对载体有较强的适应性,而CO₂加氢反应对载体敏感性较强,Al₂O₃,ZrO₂和碳材料载体效果较好.本文还总结了近些年来基于对活性相、助剂和载体的深入理解设计制备的一些新型催化剂及其在费托合成和CO₂加氢反应中的应用,包括具有新颖结构的催化剂、金属-有机骨架衍生催化剂以及与沸石分子筛结合的双功能催化剂.最后,还分析了目前Fe基催化剂在费托合成和CO₂加氢反应应用中所面临的问题和挑战,并对未来的发展趋势进行了展望.

三通道气相色谱法监测大气中CH_(4)、CO、CO_(2)、N_(2)O和SF_(6)北大核心CSCD

我国正处于“碳达峰、碳中和”的关键时期,准确认识我国温室气体浓度时空格局以及变化对于评估“碳达峰”和“碳中和”行动成效非常重要。当前我国近地面温室气体高精度监测主要依赖进口的光学监测主机,单台仪器成本高且监测要素有限。为此,该研究基于传统的气相色谱法,自主设计了一套三通道气相色谱分析系统,在单台仪器上实现了5种主要长寿命温室气体(CH_(4)、CO、CO_(2)、N_(2)O和SF_(6))的高精度监测。对该系统的精密度、线性响应情况和准确度进行的针对性测试实验表明系统检测性能满足世界气象组织/全球大气观测(WMO/GAW)质控标准。针对环境浓度的CH_(4)、CO、CO_(2)、N_(2)O和SF_(6)的连续分析精密度分别达0.08%、1.90%、0.05%、0.08%、0.66%。准确度测试中,5种气体(CH_(4)、CO、CO_(2)、N_(2)O和SF_(6))使用回归方程计算所得值与标称摩尔分数间的偏差分别达0.15×10-9、0.20×10-9、0.37×10-6、0.35×10-9、0.02×10-12(摩尔分数),CH_(4)、CO、CO_(2)、N_(2)O和SF_(6)仪器响应值与标称摩尔分数的线性拟合相关系数(R2)均为0.9999,线性拟合残差和准确度基本达到WMO/GAW拓展质控目标。该系统对杭州城区大气温室气体在线连续监测结果显示,2021年5~7月期间大气CH_(4)、CO、CO_(2)和N_(2)O呈明显的日变化特征,主要受人为活动影响。综合测试和试运行结果表明,该研发系统具备良好的精密度、准确度、线性和稳定性,与目前国内广泛进口的仪器相比,具有技术自主可控、运行成本更低、自动化水平更高等优势,能满足多种温室气体在线监测研究的需求。     

Gas transport property of polyallylamine–poly(vinyl alcohol)/polysulfone composite membranes

Polyallylamine (PAAm) was synthesized by free radical polymerization and characterized by Fourier transform infrared resonance (FT-IR) spectroscopy, hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR) spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The composite membranes were prepared by using PAAm–poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) blend polymer as the separation layer and polysulfone (PSF) ultrafiltration membranes as the support layer. The surface and cross-section morphology of the membrane was inspected by environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM). The gas transport property of the membranes, including gas permeance, flux and selectivity, were investigated by using pure CO₂, N₂, CH₄ gases and CO₂/N₂ gas mixture (20 vol% CO₂ and 80 vol% N₂) and CO₂/CH₄ gas mixture (10 vol% CO₂ and 90 vol% CH₄). The plots of gas permeance or flux versus feed gas pressure imply that CO₂ permeation through the membranes follows facilitated transport mechanism whereas N₂ and CH₄ permeation follows solution–diffusion mechanism. Effect of PAAm content in the separation layer on gas transport property was investigated by measuring the membranes with 0–50 wt% PAAm content. With increasing PAAm content, gas permeance increases initially, reaches a maximum, and then decreases gradually. For CO₂/N₂ gas mixture, the membranes with 10 wt% PAAm content show the highest CO₂ permeance of about 1.80 × 10⁻⁵ cm³ (STP) cm⁻² s⁻¹ KPa⁻¹ and CO₂/N₂ selectivity of 80 at 0.1 MPa feed gas pressure. For CO₂/CH₄ gas mixture, the membranes with 20 wt% PAAm content display the highest CO₂ permeance of about 1.95 × 10⁻⁵ cm³ (STP) cm⁻² s⁻¹ KPa⁻¹ and CO₂/CH₄ selectivity of 58 at 0.1 MPa feed gas pressure. In order to explore the possible reason of gas permeance varying with PAAm content, the crystallinity of PVA and PAAm–PVA blend polymers was measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra. The experimental results show an inverse relationship between crystallinity and gas permeance, e.g., a minimum crystallinity and a maximum CO₂ permeance are obtained at 20 wt% PAAm content, indicating that the possibility of increasing CO₂ permeance with PAAm content due to the increase of carrier concentration could be weakened by the increase of crystallinity.     

Simultaneous monitoring of pH, CO2 and O2 using an optical imaging fiber

The interdependence of pH, CO₂ and O₂ during chemical and biochemical processes has driven the need to monitor them simultaneously, continuously and in situ, in order to exert better control over such reactions. We present the fabrication and performance of a multi-analyte imaging fiber sensor that allows pH, CO₂ and O₂ to be monitored simultaneously with rapid response. Sensing elements are fabricated by covalently immobilizing fluorescent indicators within polymer matrices via photopolymerization, resulting in the formation of distinct regions of analyte-sensitive polymer at the fiber's distal end. The multianalyte sensor's working range is 0%–100% for O₂ and 0%–10% for CO₂ in the pH range 5.5–7.5. The sensor was used to monitor the pH, CO₂ and O₂ changes during a beer fermentation.     

A new experimental technique for validating exchange models of carbon dioxide between the atmosphere and sea-water

The mechanism of CO₂-exchange between the atmosphere and sea-water was re-examined by simultaneously measuring pH and pO₂ in artificial sea-water exposed to CO₂ and air atmospheres. The data were fitted to an exchange model by using both the differential and integral forms of the diffusion equation. It was found that the pH and pO₂ data support the assumption that the exchange for these gases is driven by the gradient of the partial pressure of the gas across the imaginary solution-gas boundary layer (the z layer) and is not affected by chemical reaction or hydration rate under the experimental conditions used, viz. 1–100 meq/l., alkalinity, pH 4.5–8.3 and z-layer thickness 2–500 μm. It is concluded that the rate of hydration of CO₂ plays an insignificant role in the exchange mechanisms between the atmosphere and the oceans.     

Ni2P纳米片用于光催化二氧化碳还原

Artificial photosynthesis is an ideal method for solar-to-chemical energy conversion, wherein solar energy is stored in the form of chemical bonds of solar fuels. In particular, the photocatalytic reduction of CO₂ has attracted considerable attention due to its dual benefits of fossil fuel production and CO₂ pollution reduction. However, CO₂ is a comparatively stable molecule and its photoreduction is thermodynamically and kinetically challenging. Thus, the photocatalytic efficiency of CO₂ reduction is far below the level of industrial applications. Therefore, development of low-cost cocatalysts is crucial for significantly decreasing the activation energy of CO₂ to achieving efficient photocatalytic CO₂ reduction. Herein, we have reported the use of a Ni₂P material that can serve as a robust cocatalyst by cooperating with a photosensitizer for the photoconversion of CO₂. An effective strategy for engineering Ni₂P in an ultrathin layered structure has been proposed to improve the CO₂ adsorption capability and decrease the CO₂ activation energy, resulting in efficient CO₂ reduction. A series of physicochemical characterizations including X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to demonstrate the successful preparation of ultrathin Ni₂P nanosheets. The XRD and XPS results confirm the successful synthesis of Ni₂P from Ni(OH)₂ by a low temperature phosphidation process. According to the TEM images, the prepared Ni₂P nanosheets exhibit a 2D and near-transparent sheet-like structure, suggesting their ultrathin thickness. The AFM images further demonstrated this result and also showed that the height of the Ni₂P nanosheets is ca 1.5 nm. The photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy results revealed that the Ni₂P material could efficiently promote the separation of the photogenerated electrons and holes in [Ru(bpy)₃]Cl₂·6H₂O. More importantly, the Ni₂P nanosheets could more efficiently promote the charge transfer and charge separation rate of [Ru(bpy)₃]Cl₂·6H₂O compared with the Ni₂P particles. In addition, the electrochemical experiments revealed that the Ni₂P nanosheets, with their high active surface area and charge conductivity, can provide more active centers for CO₂ conversion and accelerate the interfacial reaction dynamics. These results strongly suggest that the Ni₂P nanosheets are a promising material for photocatalytic CO₂ reduction, and can achieve a CO generation rate of 64.8 μmol·h^-1, which is 4.4 times higher than that of the Ni₂P particles. In addition, the XRD and XPS measurements of the used Ni₂P nanosheets after the six cycles of the photocatalytic CO₂ reduction reaction demonstrated their high stability. Overall, this study offers a new function for the 2D transition-metal phosphide catalysts in photocatalytic CO₂ reduction.     

O2/CO2气氛下CO2和H2O气化反应对煤及煤焦燃烧特性的影响

利用热天平对比研究了大同煤及煤焦在O₂/N₂、O₂/CO₂和O₂/H₂O/CO₂中的燃烧行为,探讨CO₂和H₂O气化反应对其富氧燃烧特性的影响。结果表明,在5%氧气浓度下,煤粉在O₂/N₂、O₂/CO₂和O₂/H₂O/CO₂中的燃烧速率按顺序依次降低。氧气浓度降低到2%,由于CO₂和H₂O气化反应的作用,煤粉在高温区的整体反应速率按顺序依次增大。当氧气浓度为5%时,煤焦在O₂/CO₂中的燃烧速率要低于O₂/N₂中的燃烧速率,但燃烧反应推迟后气化反应的参与使得煤焦在O₂/H₂O/CO₂中的整体反应速率显著升高。当氧气浓度降低到2%后,随着温度的升高,在CO₂气化反应的作用下,煤焦在O₂/CO₂中的整体反应速率逐渐高于O₂/N₂中的燃烧速率。在O₂/H₂O/CO₂中,由于H₂O在共气化中起主要作用,煤焦在O₂/H₂O/CO₂高温区的整体反应速率进一步升高。动力学分析表明,在5%氧浓度时,煤焦在O₂/N₂、O₂/CO₂和O₂/H₂O/CO₂中的表观活化能依次升高。随着氧气浓度的降低,在不同反应气氛中的表观活化能均有所下降。
