One pot synthesis of hydrogen and glucaric acid via glucose electrolysis

Abstract

Amidst the rising population and energy demands, hydrogen fuel provides a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. In this aspect, electrochemical oxidation of biomass such as glucose,...

Production of H2 and Glucaric Acid Using Electrocatalyst Glucose Oxidation by the Ta NiFe LDH Electrode

“…The peaks at the 2.8–3.2, 4.25–4.3, and 4.9 ppm regions are attributed to glucose. , The NMR result shows that after the electrocatalyst on the Ta NiFe LDH/NF, there are no peaks corresponding to glucose, which indicates glucose converted to GRA and GNA. , Furthermore, the peak at around 8.5 ppm in the H NMR spectrum corresponded to the formation of the −COOH group. In addition, the 2.28, 2.76, and 2.38 ppm peaks indicate the −OH groups, which confirm the formation of GRA and GNA after electrocatalyst on the Ta NiFe LDH/NF electrode. , However, FTIR and NMR analysis cannot detect the entire oxidation of glucose into GNA and GRA. Additionally, because the functional group compositions of GNA and GRA are quite similar, the formation of these two compounds cannot be explained only by their FTIR and NMR spectra.…”

Photo-, electro-, and photoelectro-catalytic conversion of glucose into high value-added products

“…10b). 134 Mehta et al 147 assembled a HER-GOR cell using NiMn/OCNT as a catalyst for both cathode and anode, lowering the voltage by 370 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm −2 compared to a HER-OER cell (Fig. 10c), as well as a three-fold increase in hydrogen yield at the cathode and a high selectivity of GRA at the anode.…”
