Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202402369. [PMID: 38446496 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202402369] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2024] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/07/2024]
Abstract
Solar-energy-driven photoreduction of CO2 is promising in alleviating environment burden, but suffers from low efficiency and over-reliance on sacrificial agents. Herein, rhenium (Re) is atomically dispersed in In2O3 to fabricate a 2Re-In2O3 photocatalyst. In sacrificial-agent-free photoreduction of CO2 with H2O, 2Re-In2O3 shows a long-term stable efficiency which is enhanced by 3.5 times than that of pure In2O3 and is also higher than those on Au-In2O3, Ag-In2O3, Cu-In2O3, Ir-In2O3, Ru-In2O3, Rh-In2O3 and Pt-In2O3 photocatalysts. Moreover, carbon-based product of the photoreduction overturns from CO on pure In2O3 to CH3OH on 2Re-In2O3. Re promotes charge separation, H2O dissociation and CO2 activation, thus enhancing photoreduction efficiency of CO2 on 2Re-In2O3. During the photoreduction, CO is a key intermediate. CO prefers to desorption rather than hydrogenation on pure In2O3, as CO binds to pure In2O3 very weakly. Re strengthens the interaction of CO with 2Re-In2O3 by 5.0 times, thus limiting CO desorption but enhancing CO hydrogenation to CH3OH. This could be the origin for photoreduction product overturn from CO on pure In2O3 to CH3OH on 2Re-In2O3. The present work opens a new way to boost sacrificial-agent-free photoreduction of CO2.

Abstract
Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2ER) has become an effective solution to relieve the energy crisis and tackle climate change. In this study, a series of tin-based organic frameworks modified by In (Sn-MOF/Inx) were successfully synthesized via a simple hydrothermal method and explored for high formate-selective CO2ER. The pure Sn-MOF exhibits maximum formate selectivity with a faradaic efficiency (FEformate) of approximately 85.0% and a current density of 15 mA cm-2 at -1.16 VRHE, while the In (6%)-modified Sn-MOF (Sn-MOF/In6) delivers a much higher maximum FEformate (around 97.5%) and a current density of 16 mA cm-2 at -0.96 VRHE. Remarkably, the Sn-MOF/In6 exhibits a significantly larger specific surface area (183.3 m2 g-1) compared to the Sn-MOF (65.2 m2 g-1). These findings indicate that introducing In, an alien element with a slightly different outer orbital electron number from that of Sn, can significantly boost the selectivity and activity for CO2ER to formate. This study presents an efficient way to modify MOF catalysts through a well-designed introducing process.

Abstract
CO2 hydrogenation coupled with renewable energy to produce methanol is of great interest. Carbon coated In2O3 hollow tube catalysts embedded with ultra-low content ZnO quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. ZnO-In2O3-II catalyst had the highest CO2 and H2 adsorption capacity, which demonstrated the highest methanol formation rate. When CO2 conversion was 8.9%, methanol selectivity still exceeded 86% at 3.0 MPa and 320 °C, and STY of methanol reached 0.98 gMeOHh-1gcat-1 at 350 °C. The ZnO/In2O3 QDs heterojunctions were formed at the interface between ZnO and In2O3(222). The ZnO/In2O3 heterojunctions, as a key structure to promote the CO2 hydrogenation to methanol, not only enhanced the interaction between ZnO and In2O3 as well as CO2 adsorption capacity, but also accelerated the electron transfer from In3+ to Zn2+. ZnO QDs boosted the dissociation and activation of H2. The carbon layer coated on In2O3 surface played a role of hydrogen spillover medium, and the dissociated H atoms were transferred to the CO2 adsorption sites on the In2O3 surface through the carbon layer, promoting the reaction of H atoms with CO2 more effectively. In addition, the conductivity of carbon enhanced the electron transfer from In3+ to Zn2+. The combination of the ZnO/In2O3 QDs heterojunctions and carbon layer greatly improved the methanol generation activity.

Effective synergies in indium oxide loaded with zirconia mixed with silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve number 34 catalysts for carbon dioxide hydrogenation to lower olefins.

Abstract
Tandem catalysts consisting of metal oxides and zeolites have been widely studied for catalytic carbon dioxide (CO2) hydrogenation to lower olefins, while the synergies of two components and their influence on the catalytic performance are still unclear. In this study, the composite catalysts composed of indium oxide loaded with zirconia (In2O3/ZrO2) and silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve number 34 (SAPO-34) are developed. Performance results indicate that the synergies between these two components can promote CO2 hydrogenation. Further characterizations reveal that the chabazite (CHA) structure and acid sites in the SAPO-34 are destroyed when preparing In-Zr/SAPO by powder milling (In-Zr/SAPO-M) because of the excessive proximity of two components, which inhibits the activation of CO2 and hydrogen (H2), thus resulting in much higher methane selectivity than the catalysts prepared by granule stacking (In-Zr/SAPO-G). Proper granule integration manner promotes tandem reaction, thus enhancing CO2 hydrogenation to lower olefins, which can provide a practicable strategy to improve catalytic performance and the selectivity of the target products.

Abstract
The activation and conversion of the CO2 molecule have always been the most vexing challenge due to its chemical inertness. Developing highly active catalysts, which could overcome dynamic limitations, has emerged as a provable and effective method to promote CO2 activation–conversion. Herein, ETS-10 zeolite–based catalysts, with active nickel species introduced by in situ doping and impregnation, have been employed for CO2 methanation. Conspicuous CO2 conversion (39.7%) and perfect CH4 selectivity (100%) were achieved over the Ni-doped ETS-10 zeolite catalyst at 280°C. Comprehensive analysis, which include X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption–desorption, SEM, TEM, H2 chemisorption, CO2 temperature programmed desorption, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, was performed. Also, the results indicated that the resultant hierarchical structure, high metal dispersion, and excellent CO2 adsorption–activation capacity of the Ni-doped ETS-10 zeolite catalyst played a dominant role in promoting CO2 conversion and product selectivity.
