The novel contribution of non-noble metal catalysts for intensified carbon dioxide hydrogenation: Recent challenges and opportunities

Strategies for the proton-coupled multi-electron reduction of CO2 on single-atom catalysts

“…(3) The electrons and holes that have moved to the surface react with molecules adsorbed on the catalyst surface, such as CO 2 and H 2 O. 72,73 Semiconductor materials (such as TiO 2 , ZnS) or heterojunction structures composed of two materials are commonly used as traditional photocatalysts. Traditional photocatalytic materials are prone to decreased stability due to light corrosion.…”

Research progress on the catalytic and thermal decomposition of ammonium dinitramide (ADN)

“…They can reduce the cost and reliance on noble metals in the catalytic industry. [102][103][104] These catalysts generally play a role in reducing the activation energy and accelerating proton transfer when catalyzing ADN decomposition. Zhai et al 92 analyzed DSC curves obtained at different heating rates and calculated the activation energies for ADN catalytic decomposition using the Kissinger method.…”

Noble Metals in Recent Developments of Heterogeneous Catalysts for CO2Conversion Processes

“…In terms of energy efficiency, thermal catalysis can be more energy-efficient compared to electrocatalysis. [14] In these systems, high temperatures can facilitate the activation of CO 2 molecules and promote desired reactions, requiring less additional energy input. In contrast, electrocatalysis often demands significant energy input in the form of electricity to drive the conversion process.…”

“…Although in recent years, the CO 2 electroreduction reaction has gained significant attention as an alternative approach for CO 2 conversion, [13] introducing a strategy that holds great promise to produce multi‐carbon compounds by employing systems that operate under mild conditions (room temperature and ambient pressure) and utilize only CO 2 and H 2 O as reactants, it is essential to highlight some advantages of the CO 2 hydrogenation via thermal catalysis. In terms of energy efficiency, thermal catalysis can be more energy‐efficient compared to electrocatalysis [14] . In these systems, high temperatures can facilitate the activation of CO 2 molecules and promote desired reactions, requiring less additional energy input.…”
