Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction with Dissolved Carbonates and Near-Zero CO2(aq) by Employing Long-Range Proton Transport
Photocatalytic CO2 reduction (CO2R) in ∼0 mM CO2(aq) concentration is challenging but is relevant for capturing CO2 and achieving a circular carbon economy. Despite recent advances, the interplay between the CO2 catalytic reduction and the oxidative redox processes that are arranged on photocatalyst surfaces with nanometer-scale distances is less studied. Specifically, mechanistic investigation on interdependent processes, including CO2 adsorption, charge separation, long-range chemical transport (∼100 nm distance), and bicarbonate buffer speciation, involved in photocatalysis is urgently needed. Photocatalytic CO2R in ∼0 mM CO2(aq), which has important applications in integrated carbon capture and utilization (CCU), has rarely been studied. Using 0.1 M KHCO3 (aq) of pH 7 but without continuously bubbling CO2, we achieved ∼0.1% solar-to-fuel conversion efficiency for CO production using AgCrOx nanoparticles that are supported on a coating-protected GaInP2 photocatalytic panel. CO is produced at ∼100% selectivity with no detectable H2, even with copious protons co-generated nearby. CO2 flux to the Ag@CrOx CO2R sites enhances CO2 adsorption, probed by in situ Raman spectroscopy. CO is produced with local protonation of dissolved inorganic carbon species in a pH as high as 11.5 when using fast electron donors such as ethanol. Isotopic labeling using KH13CO3 was used to confirm the origin of CO from the bicarbonate solution. We then employed COMSOL Multiphysics modeling to simulate the spatial and temporal pH variation and the local concentrations of bicarbonates and CO2(aq). We found that light-driven CO2R and CO2 reactive transport are mutually dependent, which is important for further understanding and manipulating CO2R activity and selectivity. This study enables direct bicarbonate utilization as the source of CO2, thereby achieving CO2 capture and conversion without purifying and feeding gaseous CO2.
