[PMID: 38712324 PMCID: PMC11073544 DOI: 10.1093/nsr/nwae114] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Although single-atom Cu sites exhibit high efficiency in CO2 hydrogenation to methanol, they are prone to forming Cu nanoparticles due to reduction and aggregation under reaction conditions, especially at high temperatures. Herein, single-atom Cu sites stabilized by adjacent Na+ ions have been successfully constructed within a metal-organic framework (MOF)-based catalyst, namely MOF-808-NaCu. It is found that the electrostatic interaction between the Na+ and Hδ- species plays a pivotal role in upholding the atomic dispersion of Cu in MOF-808-NaCu during CO2 hydrogenation, even at temperatures of up to 275°C. This exceptional stabilization effect endows the catalyst with excellent activity (306 g·kgcat-1·h-1), high selectivity to methanol (93%) and long-term stability at elevated reaction temperatures, far surpassing the counterpart in the absence of Na+ (denoted as MOF-808-Cu). This work develops an effective strategy for the fabrication of stable single-atom sites for advanced catalysis by creating an alkali-decorated microenvironment in close proximity.

Catal Sci Technol 2024; 14:1138-1147.

Abstract
Considering the alarming scenario of climate change, CO2 hydrogenation to methanol is considered a key process for phasing out fossil fuels by means of CO2 utilization. In this context, MoS2 catalysts have recently shown to be promising catalysts for this reaction, especially in the presence of abundant basal-plane sulfur vacancies and due to synergistic mechanisms with other phases. In this work, Mn-promoted MoS2 prepared by a hydrothermal method presents considerable selectivity for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol in comparison with pure MoS2 and other promoters such as K and Co. Interestingly, if CO is used as a carbon source for the reaction, methanol production is remarkably lower, which suggests the absence of a CO intermediate during CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. After optimization of synthesis parameters, a methanol selectivity of 64% is achieved at a CO2 conversion of 2.8% under 180 °C. According to material characterization by X-ray Diffraction and X-ray Absorption, the Mn promoter is present mainly in the form of MnO and MnCO3 phases, with the latter undergoing convertion to MnO upon H2 pretreatment. However, following exposure to reaction conditions, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy suggests that higher oxidation states of Mn may be present at the surface, suggesting that the improved catalytic activity for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol arises from a synergy between MoS2 and MnOx at the catalyst surface.

Abstract
Converting CO2 into methanol on a large scale is of great significance in the sustainable methanol economy. Zirconia species are considered to be an essential support in Cu-based catalysts due to their excellent properties for CO2 adsorption and activation. However, the evolution of Zr species during the reaction and the effect of their structure on the reaction pathways remain unclear. Herein, single-site Zr species in an amorphous SiO2 matrix are created by enhancing the Zr-Si interaction in Cu/ZrO2 -SiO2 catalysts. In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) reveals that the coordination environment of single-site Zr is sensitive to the atmosphere and reaction conditions. We demonstrate that the CO2 adsorption occurs preferably on the interface of Cu and single-site Zr rather than on ZrO2 nanoparticles. Methanol synthesis in reverse water-gas-shift (RWGS)+CO-hydro pathway is verified only over single-dispersed Zr sites, whereas the ordinary formate pathway occurs on ZrO2 nanoparticles. Thus, it expands a non-competitive parallel pathway as a supplement to the dominant formate pathway, resulting in the enhancement of Cu activity sixfold and twofold based on Cu/SiO2 and Cu/ZrO2 catalysts, respectively. The establishment of this dual-channel pathway by single-site Zr species in this work opens new horizons for understanding the role of atomically dispersed oxides in catalysis science.

Abstract
Copper-based catalysts serve as the predominant methanol steam reforming material although several fundamental issues remain ambiguous such as the identity of active center and the aspects of reaction mechanism. Herein, we prepare Cu/Cu(Al)Ox catalysts with amorphous alumina-stabilized Cu2O adjoining Cu nanoparticle to provide Cu0-Cu+ sites. The optimized catalyst exhibits 99.5% CH3OH conversion with a corresponding H2 production rate of 110.8 μmol s-1 gcat-1 with stability over 300 h at 240 °C. A binary function correlation between the CH3OH reaction rate and surface concentrations of Cu0 and Cu+ is established based on kinetic studies. Intrinsic active sites in the catalyst are investigated with in situ spectroscopy characterization and theoretical calculations. Namely, we find that important oxygen-containing intermediates (CH3O* and HCOO*) adsorb at Cu0-Cu+ sites with a moderate adsorption strength, which promotes electron transfer from the catalyst to surface species and significantly reduces the reaction barrier of the C-H bond cleavage in CH3O* and HCOO* intermediates.

Abstract
Nowadays, the production of acetaldehyde heavily relies on the petroleum industry. Developing new catalysts for the ethanol dehydrogenation process that could sustainably substitute current acetaldehyde production methods is highly desired. Among the ethanol dehydrogenation catalysts, copper-based materials have been intensively studied. Unfortunately, the Cu-based catalysts suffer from sintering and coking, which lead to rapid deactivation with time-on-stream. Phosphorus doping has been demonstrated to diminish coking in methanol dehydrogenation, fluid catalytic cracking, and ethanol-to-olefin reactions. This work reports a pioneering application of the well-characterized copper phosphinate complexes as molecular precursors for copper-based ethanol dehydrogenation catalysts enriched with phosphate groups (Cu-phosphate/SiO2). Three new catalysts (CuP-1, CuP-2, and CuP-3), prepared by the deposition of complexes {Cu(SAAP)}n (1), [Cu6(BSAAP)6] (2), and [Cu3(NAAP)3] (3) on the surface of commercial SiO2, calcination at 500 °C, and reduction in the stream of the forming gas 5% H2/N2 at 400 °C, exhibited unusual properties. First, the catalysts showed a rapid increase in catalytic activity. After reaching the maximum conversion, the catalyst started to deactivate. The unusual behavior could be explained by the presence of the phosphate phase, which made Cu2+ reduction more difficult. The phosphorus content gradually decreased during time-on-stream, copper was reduced, and the activity increased. The deactivation of the catalyst could be related to the copper diffusion processes. The most active CuP-1 catalyst reaches a maximum of 73% ethanol conversion and over 98% acetaldehyde selectivity at 325 °C and WHSV = 2.37 h-1.

Abstract
A series of Cu-ZnO-Al2O3 catalysts (CZA) were prepared by glucose pretreatment and applied for methanol synthesis from CO2 hydrogenation. The advantages of the glucose pretreatment and the effects of glucose content were investigated by XRD, N2 physisorption, SEM, N2O chemisorption, CO2-TPD, H2-TPR, TG, and XPS characterization techniques. The influence of glucose pretreatment on the average Cu particle size and the interaction between different components, as well as the effects of the amount of glucose on the Cu specific surface area, the ratio of Cu0/Cu+ and the performance of the catalysts were discussed. The results showed that the catalysts prepared by glucose pretreatment increased the number of basic sites and had a significant advantage in methanol yield. The optimum content of glucose was beneficial to improve the catalytic performance of the CZA catalyst. The maximum space-time yield of methanol was obtained by 2 wt% glucose pretreatments at 200 °C, which was 57.0 g kg-1 h-1.

Abstract
The hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol, which is restricted by water products, requires a selective removal of water from the reaction system. Here, we show that physically combining hydrophobic polydivinylbenzene with a copper catalyst supported by silica can increase methanol production and CO2 conversion. Mechanistic investigation reveals that the hydrophobic promoter could hinder the oxidation of copper surface by water, maintaining a small fraction of metallic copper species on the copper surface with abundant Cuδ+, resulting in high activity for the hydrogenation. Such a physically mixed catalyst survives the continuous test for 100 h owing to the thermal stability of the polydivinylbenzene promoter.

Abstract
Selective reduction of nitroaromatics to the corresponding aromatic amines is extremely an attractive chemical process for both fundamental research and potential commercial applications. Herewith, we report that a highly dispersed Cu catalyst supported on H3PO4-activated coffee biochar and the resulting Cu/PBCR-600 catalyst show complete conversion of the nitroaromatics and >97.0% selectivity for the corresponding aromatic amines. The TOF of catalyzing the reduction of nitroaromatics (1.55-460.74 min-1) is approximately 2 to 15 times higher than those of previously reported non-noble and even noble metal catalysts. Additionally, Cu/PBCR-600 also shows high stability in catalytic recycles. Furthermore, it exhibits long-term catalytic stability (660 min) for practical application in a continuous-flow reactor. The characterizations and activity tests reveal that Cu0 existing in Cu/PBCR-600 acts as an active site in nitroaromatics reduction. Also, the further characterization by FTIR and UV-vis demonstrates that N, P co-doped coffee biochar could selectively adsorb and activate the nitro group of nitroaromatics.

Abstract
The increasing concentration of anthropogenic CO2 in the air is one of the main causes of global warming. The Paris Agreement at COP 21 aims to reach the global peak of greenhouse gas emissions in the second half of this century, with CO2 conversion towards valuable added compounds being one of the main strategies, especially in the field of heterogeneous catalysis. In the current search for new catalysts, the deposition of metallic nanoparticles (NPs) supported on metal oxides and metal carbide surfaces paves the way to new catalytic solutions. This review provides a comprehensive description and analysis of the relevant literature on the utilization of metal-supported NPs as catalysts for CO2 conversion to useful chemicals and propose that the next catalysts generation can be led by single-metal-atom deposition, since in general, small metal particles enhance the catalytic activity. Among the range of potential indicators of catalytic activity and selectivity, the relevance of NPs’ size, the strong metal–support interactions, and the formation of vacancies on the support are exhaustively discussed from experimental and computational perspective.

Abstract
Stable F-T-based catalyst development in direct CO hydrogenation to higher alcohols is still a challenge at present. In this study, CuFe/SiO2 catalysts with a SiO2 support treated with a piranha solution were prepared and evaluated in a long-term reaction. The treated catalyst showed higher total alcohols’ selectivity and great stability during a reaction of more than 90 h. It was found that the treatment with the piranha solution enriched the surface hydroxyl groups on SiO2, so that the Cu–Fe active components could be firmly anchored and highly dispersed on the support, resulting in stable catalytic performance. Furthermore, the in situ DRIFTS revealed that the adsorption strength of CO on Cu+ on the treated catalyst surface was weakened, which made the C-O bond less likely to be cleaved and thus significantly inhibited the formation of hydrocarbon products. Meanwhile, the non-dissociated CO species were obviously enriched on the Cu0 surface, promoting the formation of alcohol products, and thus the selectivity of total alcohols was increased. This strategy will shed light on the design of supported catalysts with stabilized structures for a wide range of catalytic reactions.

Abstract
The catalytic hydrogenation of captured CO2 by different industrial processes allows obtaining liquid biofuels and some chemical products that not only present the interest of being obtained from a very low-cost raw material (CO2) that indeed constitutes an environmental pollution problem but also constitute an energy vector, which can facilitate the storage and transport of very diverse renewable energies. Thus, the combined use of green H2 and captured CO2 to obtain chemical products and biofuels has become attractive for different processes such as power-to-liquids (P2L) and power-to-gas (P2G), which use any renewable power to convert carbon dioxide and water into value-added, synthetic renewable E-fuels and renewable platform molecules, also contributing in an important way to CO2 mitigation. In this regard, there has been an extraordinary increase in the study of supported metal catalysts capable of converting CO2 into synthetic natural gas, according to the Sabatier reaction, or in dimethyl ether, as in power-to-gas processes, as well as in liquid hydrocarbons by the Fischer-Tropsch process, and especially in producing methanol by P2L processes. As a result, the current review aims to provide an overall picture of the most recent research, focusing on the last five years, when research in this field has increased dramatically.

Abstract
Currently, direct catalytic CO2 hydrogenation to produce ethanol is an effective and feasible way for the resource utilization of CO2. However, constructing non-precious metal catalysts with satisfactory activity and desirable ethanol selectivity remains a huge challenge. Herein, we reported gallium-promoted CuCo-based catalysts derived from single-source Cu-Co-Ga-Al layered double hydroxide precursors. It was manifested that the introduction of Ga species could strengthen strong interactions between Cu and Co oxide species, thereby modifying their electronic structures and thus facilitating the formation of abundant metal-oxide interfaces (i.e., Cu0/Cu+-CoGaOx interfaces). Notably, the as-constructed Cu-CoGa catalyst with a Ga:Co molar ratio of 0.4 exhibited a high ethanol selectivity of 23.8% at a 17.8% conversion, along with a high space-time yield of 1.35 mmolEtOH·gcat-1·h-1 for ethanol under mild reaction conditions (i.e., 220 °C, 3 MPa pressure), which outperformed most non-noble metal-based catalysts previously reported. According to the comprehensive structural characterizations and in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectra of CO2/CO adsorption and CO2 hydrogenation, it was unambiguously revealed that CHx could be formed at oxygen vacancies of defective CoGaOx species, while CO could be stabilized by Cu+ species, and thus the catalytic synergistic role of Cu0/Cu+-CoGaOx interfacial sites promoted the generation of CHx and CO intermediates to participate in the CHx-CO coupling process and simultaneously inhibited alkylation reactions. The present work points out a promising new strategy for constructing CuCo-based catalysts with favorable interfacial sites for highly efficient CO2 hydrogenation to produce ethanol.

Abstract
Using nonthermal plasma (NTP) to promote CO2 hydrogenation is one of the most promising approaches that overcome the limitations of conventional thermal catalysis. However, the catalytic surface reaction dynamics of NTP-activated species are still under debate. The NTP-activated CO2 hydrogenation was investigated in Pd2Ga/SiO2 alloy catalysts and compared to thermal conditions. Although both thermal and NTP conditions showed close to 100% CO selectivity, it is worth emphasizing that when activated by NTP, CO2 conversion not only improves more than 2-fold under thermal conditions but also breaks the thermodynamic equilibrium limitation. Mechanistic insights into NTP-activated species and alloy catalyst surface were investigated by using in situ transmission infrared spectroscopy, where catalyst surface species were identified during NTP irradiation. Moreover, in in situ X-ray absorption fine-structure analysis under reaction conditions, the catalyst under NTP conditions not only did not undergo restructuring affecting CO2 hydrogenation but also could clearly rule out catalyst activation by heating. In situ characterizations of the catalysts during CO2 hydrogenation depict that vibrationally excited CO2 significantly enhances the catalytic reaction. The agreement of approaches combining experimental studies and density functional theory (DFT) calculations substantiates that vibrationally excited CO2 reacts directly with hydrogen adsorbed on Pd sites while accelerating formate formation due to neighboring Ga sites. Moreover, DFT analysis deduces the key reaction pathway that the decomposition of monodentate formate is promoted by plasma-activated hydrogen species. This work enables the high designability of CO2 hydrogenation catalysts toward value-added chemicals based on the electrification of chemical processes via NTP.

Abstract
Cu2O based electrocatalysts generally exhibit better selectivity for C2 products (ethylene or ethanol) in electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction. The surface characteristic of the mixed Cu+ and Cu0 chemical state is believed to play an essential role that is still unclear. In the present study, density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed to understand the role of copper chemical states in selective ethanol formation using a partially reduced Cu2O surface model consisting of adjacent Cu+/Cu0 sites. We mapped out the free energy diagram of the reaction pathway from CO intermediate to ethanol and discussed the relation between the formation of critical reduction intermediates and the configuration of Cu+/Cu0 sites. The results showed that Cu+ sites facilitate the adsorption and stabilization of *CO, as well as its further hydrogenation to *CHO. More importantly, as compared to the high reaction energy (1.23 eV) of the dimerization of two *CO on Cu+/Cu0 sites, the preferable formation of *CHO on the Cu+ site makes the C-C coupling reaction with *CO on the Cu0 site happen under a relatively lower energy barrier of 0.58 eV. Furthermore, the post C-C coupling steps leading to the formation of the key intermediate *OCHCH2 to C2 compound are all thermodynamically favoured. Noteworthily, it is found that *OCHCH2 inclines to the ethanol formation because the coordinatively unsaturated Cu+ site could maintain the C-O bond of *OCHCH2, and the weak binding between *O and Cu+/Cu0 sites helps inhibit the pathway toward ethylene. These findings may provide guidelines for the design of CO and CO2 reduction active sites with enhanced ethanol selectivity.

Abstract
Despite the great commercial relevance of zinc-promoted copper catalysts for methanol synthesis, the nature of the Cu-ZnO x synergy and the nature of the active Zn-based promoter species under industrially relevant conditions are still a topic of vivid debate. Detailed characterization of the chemical speciation of any promoter under high-pressure working conditions is challenging but specifically hampered by the large fraction of Zn spectator species bound to the oxidic catalyst support. We present the use of weakly interacting graphitic carbon supports as a tool to study the active speciation of the Zn promoter phase that is in close contact with the Cu nanoparticles using time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy under working conditions. Without an oxidic support, much fewer Zn species need to be added for maximum catalyst activity. A 5-15 min exposure to 1 bar H2 at 543 K only slightly reduces the Zn(II), but exposure for several hours to 20 bar H2/CO and/or H2/CO/CO2 leads to an average Zn oxidation number of +(0.5-0.6), only slightly increasing to +0.8 in a 20 bar H2/CO2 feed. This means that most of the added Zn is in a zerovalent oxidation state during methanol synthesis conditions. The Zn average coordination number is 8, showing that this phase is not at the surface but surrounded by other metal atoms (whether Zn or Cu), and indicating that the Zn diffuses into the Cu nanoparticles under reaction conditions. The time scale of this process corresponds to that of the generally observed activation period for these catalysts. These results reveal the speciation of the relevant Zn promoter species under methanol synthesis conditions and, more generally, present the use of weakly interacting graphitic supports as an important strategy to avoid excessive spectator species, thereby allowing us to study the nature of relevant promoter species.

Exploring the Effects of the Interaction of Carbon and MoS2 Catalyst on CO2 Hydrogenation to Methanol. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23095220. [PMID: 35563618 PMCID: PMC9104557 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23095220] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2022] [Revised: 05/02/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Hydrogenation of CO2 to form methanol utilizing green hydrogen is a promising route to realizing carbon neutrality. However, the development of catalyst with high activity and selectivity to methanol from the CO2 hydrogenation is still a challenge due to the chemical inertness of CO2 and its characteristics of multi-path conversion. Herein, a series of highly active carbon-confining molybdenum sulfide (MoS2@C) catalysts were prepared by the in-situ pyrolysis method. In comparison with the bulk MoS2 and MoS2/C, the stronger interaction between MoS2 and the carbon layer was clearly generated. Under the optimized reaction conditions, MoS2@C showed better catalytic performance and long-term stability. The MoS2@C catalyst could sustain around 32.4% conversion of CO2 with 94.8% selectivity of MeOH for at least 150 h.

Abstract
High-efficiency utilization of CO2 facilitates the reduction of CO2 concentration in the global atmosphere and hence the alleviation of the greenhouse effect. The catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to produce value-added chemicals exhibits attractive prospects by potentially building energy recycling loops. Particularly, methanol is one of the practically important objective products, and the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to synthesize methanol has been extensively studied. In this review, we focus on some basic concepts on CO2 activation, the recent research advances in the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol, the development of high-performance catalysts, and microscopic insight into the reaction mechanisms. Finally, some thinking on the present research and possible future trend is presented.

Abstract
Cu-based catalysts exhibit excellent performance in hydrogenation reactions. However, the poor stability of Cu catalysts under high temperatures has restricted their practical applications. The preparation of stable Cu catalysts supported by SiO2 with strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) has thus aroused great interest due to the high abundance, low toxicity, feasible processability, and low cost of SiO2 . The challenge in the construction of such SMSI remains to be the inertness of SiO2 . Herein, a simple and scalable method is developed to prepare 2D silica (2DSiO2 ) supported Cu catalysts with SMSI by carefully manipulating the topological exfoliation of CaSi2 with CuCl2 and thereafter calcination. The prepared Cu-2DSiO2 catalysts with the unique encapsulated Cu nanoparticles exhibit excellent activity and long-term stability in high-temperature CO2 hydrogenation reactions. This feasible and low-cost solution for stabilizing Cu catalysts might shed light on their realistic applications.

Abstract
A dendritic PdCu/Ce0.3Zr0.7O2 (PdCu/CZ-3) catalyst with uniform spherical morphology was prepared for boosting the catalytic performance of CO2 hydrogenation to methanol (MeOH). The open dendritic pore channels and small particle sizes could reduce not only the diffuse resistance of reactants and products but also increase the accessibility between the active sites (PdCu and oxygen vacancy) and the reactants (H2 and CO2). More spillover hydrogen could be generated due to the highly dispersed PdCu active metals over the PdCu/CZ-3 catalyst. PdCu/CZ-3 can stimulate the generation of more Ce3+ cations, which is beneficial to produce more oxygen vacancies on the surface of the CZ-3 composite. Spillover hydrogen and oxygen vacancy could promote the formate and methoxy routes over PdCu/CZ-3, the primary intermediates producing MeOH. PdCu/CZ-3 displayed the highest CO2 conversions (25.5 %), highest MeOH yield (6.4 %), highest PdCu-TOFMeOH (7.7 h-1) and superior 100 h long-term stability than those of other PdCu/CexZr1-xO2 analogs and the reference PdCu/CeO2 and PdCu/ZrO2 catalysts. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations and in situ DRIFTS were performed to investigate the CO2 - MeOH hydrogenation mechanism.

Abstract
The discussion concerning cooperativity in supported single-atom (SA) catalysis is often limited to the metal-support interaction, which is certainly important, but which is not the only lever for modifying the catalytic performance. Indeed, if the interaction between the SA and the support, which can be seen as a solid ligand presenting its own specificities that fix the first coordination sphere of the metal, plays a central role as in homogeneous catalysis, other factors can strongly contribute to modification of the activity, selectivity and stability of SAs. Therefore, in this mini-review, we briefly summarize the importance of the support (oxide, carbon or a second metal) in SA photo- electro- and thermal-catalysis (support-assisted operation), and concentrate on other types of cooperativities that in some cases enable previously impossible reaction pathways on supported metal SAs. This includes topics that are not specific to SA catalysis, such as metal-ligand or heterobimetallic cooperativity, and cooperativity which is SA-specific such as nanoparticle-SA or mixed-valence SA cooperativity.

Abstract
Facile synthesis of a highly efficient Cu/ZrO2 catalyst by a flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) method was developed for methanol production from CO2 hydrogenation. The instantaneous quenching process from extremely high temperature in FSP was used for rational design of a Cu/ZrO2 catalyst, not only producing the metastable tetragonal phase ZrO2, but also strengthening the metal-support interaction. The methanol yield of one-step synthesized FSP-Cu/ZrO2 was 3 times higher than the one made by the traditional method. This strategy is anticipated to pave the way for strengthening metal-support interactions of supported catalysts.
