摘要:
A three electrode metal-air cell with a mechanically replaceable and electrochemically rechargeable metal anode has been proposed. The functions of oxygen reduction and oxygen evolution are split between two air electrodes that form the cell walls. The metal composition of the replaceable metal anode includes a conjugated polymer additive. The current collector of the metal anode has the shape of a spiral spring and is made of alloy of zinc, tin, lead, bismuth or indium. The replaceable metal anode can be used as a universal energy storage unit that produces electricity as the anode of a metal-air battery or hydrogen as the anode of a hydrogen-on-demand generator.

An electrocatalyst for the electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide to hydrocarbons is provided. The electrocatalyst for the electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide includes copper material supported on carbon nanotubes. The copper material may be pure copper, copper and ruthenium, copper and iron, or copper and palladium supported on the carbon nanotubes. The electrocatalyst is prepared by dissolving copper nitrate trihydrate in deionized water to form a salt solution. Carbon nanotubes are then added to the salt solution to form a suspension, which is then heated. A urea solution is added to the suspension to form the electrocatalyst in solution. The electrocatalyst is then removed from the solution. In addition to dissolving the copper nitrate trihydrate in the deionized water, either iron nitrate monohydrate, ruthenium chloride or palladium chloride may also be dissolved in the deionized water to form the salt solution.

Disclosed are electrolysis catalysts formed from cobalt, oxygen and buffering electrolytes (e.g. fluoride). They can be formed as a coating on an anode by conducting an electrolysis reaction using an electrolyte containing cobalt and an anionic buffering electrolyte. The catalysts will facilitate the conversion of water to oxygen and hydrogen gas at a range of mildly acidic conditions. Alternatively, these anodes can be used with cathodes that facilitate other desirable reactions such as converting carbon dioxide to methanol.
