摘要
Efficient H<INF>2</INF>O<INF>2</INF> production both on a carbon cathode modified with various metal salts and on an oxide photoanode was investigated. The cathodic current density and faradaic efficiency for H<INF>2</INF>O<INF>2</INF> production (FE(H<INF>2</INF>O<INF>2</INF>)) on a carbon cathode in KHCO<INF>3</INF> aqueous solution were significantly improved by the loading of an insoluble nickel carbonate basic hydrate catalyst. This electrode was prepared by a precipitation method of nickel nitrate and KHCO<INF>3</INF> aqueous solution at ambient temperature. The nickel carbonate basic hydrate electrode was very stable, and the accumulated concentration of H<INF>2</INF>O<INF>2</INF> was reached at 1.0 wt% at a passed charge of 2500C (the average FE(H<INF>2</INF>O<INF>2</INF>) was 80%). A simple photoelectrochemical system for H<INF>2</INF>O<INF>2</INF> production from both the cathode and a BiVO<INF>4</INF>/WO<INF>3</INF> photoanode was demonstrated without an external bias or an ion-exchange membrane in a one-compartment reactor under simulated solar light. The apparent FE(H<INF>2</INF>O<INF>2</INF>) from both electrodes was calculated to be 168% in total, and the production rate of H<INF>2</INF>O<INF>2</INF> was approximately 0.92 mu mol min-1 cm-2. The solar-to-chemical energy conversion efficiency for H<INF>2</INF>O<INF>2</INF> production (STC<INF>H<INF>2</INF>O<INF>2</INF></INF>) without an external bias was approximately 1.75%.
