Abstract:CO2-assisted propane dehydrogenation (CO2–ODHP) is emerging as an alternative route to the direct
dehydrogenation
of propane. Previous studies on CO2–ODHP have shown
that the role of CO2 is to shift the reaction equilibrium
toward the product side by consuming the produced H2 molecules
via reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reaction. Since the ultimate fate
of CO2 is to get reduced, we herein propose another pathway
of CO2 reduction in the realm of CO2–ODHPCO2 hydrogenation to formic acid (FA). With the objective… Show more
