Carbon Dioxide Reduction Jawaharlal Nehru Centre For Advanced Electroreduction of carbon dioxide (co 2) into high value added products is a potential solution to a reduction in co 2 levels and its utilization. one major challenge is the lack of an efficient system that can highly selectively reduce co 2 into desirable products with low energy consumption. Room temperature ionic liquids are increasingly investigated as electrolytes for electrocatalytic co2 reduction thanks to their high intrinsic ionic conductivities, wide electrochemical potential.
Reviewing And Evaluating Recent Electrochemical Carbon Dioxide Abstract. as a new type of green solvent with non volatility, high thermal stability, high conductivity and various adjustable properties, ionic liquid (il) has been widely used in the capture and electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (co 2). to date, many studies have been made to investigate co 2 capture by using different types of ils. Electrochemical reduction of co 2 is a novel research field towards a co 2 neutral global economy and combating fast accelerating and disastrous climate changes while finding new solutions to store renewable energy in value added chemicals and fuels. ionic liquids (ils), as medium and catalysts (or supporting part of catalysts) have been given. Co 2 electroreduction is among the most promising approaches used to transform this green house gas into useful fuels and chemicals. ionic liquids (ils) have already proved to be the adequate media for co 2 dissolution, activation, and stabilization of radical and ionic electrochemical active species in aqueous solutions. Imidazolium ionic liquids are potentially useful solvents for both carbon dioxide reduction conversion and capture. in particular electrocatalytic co 2 reduction has been shown to occur at low overpotentials using a 1 ethyl 3 methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([emim][otf]) and water mixed solvent. a limitation of such solvent systems.
