Ueber elektrolytische Reduction der Kohlensäure

Abstract

Ueber die Beziehungen beider Korper k m n ich vorerat nichts Sieheres aussagen; vielleicht ist die griine Form monomolekular. die audere dimolekular.Die stabile, sogenannte violette Modification erhllt man beim Umkrystallisiren des Rohprodnctes aus heisaem Renzol in Form von feinen, zu Kugeln yereinigten Nadelchen, welche eine schwer zu beschreibende, grauviolette Farbe besitzen und bei 126 -1 27O unter Inn<samer Gasentwickelung zu dunklem Oel schmelzen.

Towards the electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide into methanol

“…47 Therefore, Cu and Zn metals were employed initially, in 1904, as cathodes for the electrochemical reduction of CO 2 . 48 In this first work, Cu, Zn, and amalgamated Cu and Zn-based electrodes were tested for the electroreduction of CO 2 in aqueous NaHCO 3 and K 2 SO 4 solutions. The results showed that the electroplated Cu with amalgamated Zn electrodes exhibited high efficiency for reducing pressurized CO 2 , although the main product obtained was HCOOH.…”

A Mechanistic Study of CO₂ Reduction at the Interface of a Gallium Phosphide (GaP) Surface using Core-level Spectroscopy - Oral Presentation

“…Through the usage of different electrodes, faradaic efficiency (electron charge conversion) of up to 100% has been noted in several aqueous reactions. [4][5][6][7] Unfortunately, electrochemistry in aqueous solutions does not always yield pure product, but rather a mixture. Separation of both the anode and cathode in two different solutions is vital because it stops the reversion of products to reactants, specifically if the reactants have lower ground state confirmation energy.…”
