Bridging Trans-Scale Electrode Engineering for Mass CO2 Electrolysis

Abstract: Electrochemical CO 2 upgrade offers an artificial route for carbon recycling and neutralization, while its widespread implementation relies heavily on the simultaneous enhancement of mass transfer and reaction kinetics to achieve industrial conversion rates. Nevertheless, such a multiscale challenge calls for trans-scale electrode engineering. Herein, three scales are highlighted to disclose the key factors of CO 2 electrolysis, including triple-phase boundaries, reaction microenvironment, and catalytic surfac… Show more

“…The electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO 2 RR), driven by renewable electricity to produce high-value chemicals, is a promising approach for the efficient utilization of carbon dioxide and the development of a carbon-neutral society. However, the use of alkaline or neutral electrolytes inevitably causes the reaction between CO 2 and OH – species, leading to a significant drop in carbon utilization efficiency. Moreover, the migration of carbonate (CO 3 2– )/bicarbonate (HCO 3 – ) ions through the anion exchange membrane (AEM) to the anolyte side further decreases the carbon efficiency. Additionally, the formation of carbonate deposits near the cathode electrode can clog the porous channels of the gas diffusion electrode, ,, resulting in reduced stability (Figure a). These issues pose limitations to the practical long-term operation of alkaline or neutral CO 2 RR.…”
