Benefits of technology

This new process described in this patents allows for creation of tiny particles called pumice or foam made from fine powders that have multiple layers of atoms arranged into regular patterns on their surfaces. These small particles help catalysts work better when they come across them during chemical reactions like reducing CO2 molecules.

Problems solved by technology

Technological Problem addressed in this patented technical problem relates to finding ways to efficiently reduce greenhouse gases emissions from industrial activities related to combustion engines like power plants and internal combustors. Specifically, current methods require expensive noble metals which cannot meet these requirements effectively without causing pollution issues associated with their usage.

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method for a loosened porous cuprous oxide material and an application of cuprous oxide in electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide. The preparation method disclosed by the invention comprises the following steps: mainly taking dilute acid and copper iodide powder after cleaning with ethyl alcohol as raw materials; preparing in a potassium iodide or sodiumiodide solution, thereby acquiring a complexing solution; adding a certain amount of complexing solution into a strong base solution at a ratio, thereby acquiring a sediment product; lastly, using ultrapure water and acetone for repeatedly centrifugal cleaning, and drying by blowing nitrogen, thereby acquiring the loosened porous cuprous oxide material. According to the invention, a simple, quick, safe and controllable basic hydrolysis method is adopted for synthesizing the loosened porous cuprous oxide material with clean surface, increasing specific surface area of the material and promoting catalytic activity; residual oxygen is utilized to reduce activation barrier of coupling reaction of intermediate products, so that reaction activity for high-carbon products is greatly boosted; total Faraday efficiency of the material for electro-catalytically reducing carbon dioxide into high-carbon products, such as ethylene, ethyl alcohol and normal propyl alcohol, is increased to above 80%.
