摘要
Syngas has been synthesized via (photo) electrochemical CO2 reduction. Its amount and yield efficiency are determined the utilizable CO2. Here we show syngas electrosynthesis using self-supplied CO2, namely in situ generated CO2 from photoelectrocatalytic pollutant oxidation. In a single-chamber based two-electrode system, CO2 is produced continuously during photoelectrocatalytic phenol oxidization on the anode of TiO2 nanotubes decorated with Pd nanoparticles. Such in-situ generated CO2 is then reduced into CO at a Pd-Cu cathode. With a phenol oxidation efficiency of 87% and a faradaic efficiency of 75%, the syngas yield is as high as 339.3 mu mol. The ratio of carbon-to-hydrogen in syngas is variable from 0 to 1:10 under different current densities. The reactions for syngas generation are investigated using in-situ electrochemical infrared technique and confirmed to be C6H5OH -> CO2 -> CO2*-> COOH*-> CO*+H+-> CO+H-2. This study thus provides an approach to degrade pollutants and simultaneously utilize produced CO2 for the production of value-added chemicals like syngas.
