Recent Advances of CO2 Electrochemical Reduction in Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells
Abstract
固体氧化物电解池是一种高效、环境友好型的能量转换器件,可以直接将电能转化为化学能. 本文介绍了近年来作者课题组在固体氧化物电解池直接用于CO2还原的研究进展,并以阴极材料为主着重讨论了金属陶瓷电极和混合导电型钙钛矿氧化物电极的研究工作,最后展望了未来固体氧化物电解池直接电解CO2的研究思路和方向. Solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOECs) have stimulated wide interests for their promising application in the reduction of CO2 emissions and the storage of renewable energy. Here, the advances made in the development of cathode materials including cermets and perovskite oxides in our research group, are summarized, along with the design of cell configurations. The electrochemical kinetics and performances of cathodes and cells are discussed and analyzed. It is expected that this brief review offers critical insights and useful guidelines for developing superior electrodes and SOECs in the future.
