纳米尺度下冷等离子体与过渡金属碳化物基催化材料耦合作用于CO2的可控活化与转化

New catalytic materials and novel molecular activation approaches were investigated in the present study for selectively catalytic CO2 reduction to CO (RWGS). Nano-sized transition metal carbide based catalysts were synthesized to study their crystal phase, morphology, electronic structure of the ad-metals being tuned by the carbide substrates, and therefore their effects on the adsorption and subsequent reaction between CO2 and H2. The study on the carbide catalysts could be expanded to transition metal nitrides and phosphides to construct muti-interfaces between the carbide-nitride and carbide-phosphide and to study the doping effects of N and P. Deep understanding on the controllable CO2 activation and conversion over the transition metal carbide based catalysts will be obtained based on the above study. On the other hand, cold-plasma was coupled with nano-sized transition metal carbides for RWGS reaction in attempt to breakthrough the thermodynamic limitations and achieve higher CO2 conversion rates at low temperatures. The nanoscale synergy between plasma and catalysis will be studied to understand the effects of catalyst’s nanostructure on discharge as well as catalyst's surface changes being induced by the plasma, in attempt to enhance the synergistic effects and energy efficiency.
