Cobalt-based Polymerized Porphyrinic Network for Visible-light-driven CO2 Reduction

“…The combustion of fossil fuels results in the emission of CO 2 , which has drawn considerable attention with respect to its contribution to climate change. − The conversion of CO 2 into useful energy fuels, such as CO, CH 4 , and CH 3 OH, has recently attracted the attention of researchers. , However, CO 2 is stable in the environment, and a large amount of energy is required to break the CO bonds. − Conversely, solar energy is endless and environmentally friendly, and it can be used to produce electricity. , For example, photocatalysis harnesses energy from light to drive chemical reactions, and it has numerous applications, such as water splitting, CO 2 reduction, N 2 fixation, pollutant degradation, and organic synthesis. − …”

Insights into the role of water and surface OH species in methane activation on copper oxide: a combined theoretical and experimental study

“…6 However, there is limited literature available with respect to the mechanism of how moisture or surface hydroxide species (added externally or generated during the reaction) participate and affect the methane activation energetics and barriers over TMOs. The reduction of methane oxidation barriers, if facilitated with the presence of surface OH species, can lead to the reduction in temperatures employed in the fuel reactor of chemical looping combustion (CLC) or chemical looping reforming (CLR) processes (via improving the heat balance and overall efficiency of these processes) 49,50 as well as the higher stability of the catalyst (due to low or no consumption of lattice oxygen in oxidation reactions).…”
