Abstract:
The electrochemical reduction of CO 2 to formic acid is a promising approach for its substantial utilization and the storage of electricity in chemical form. In order to circumvent the solubility limitation of CO 2 , gas diffusion electrodes were developed with tin as electrocatalyst and their performance in the electrochemical reduction of CO 2 was evaluated. Using these electrodes allows increasing the achievable current density up to 200 mA cm −2 at a Faradaic efficiency of 90 % before mass transport limitation comes into effect. Furthermore, first experiments in a microstructured reactor will be discussed that describe the transfer from semi‐batch to continuous mode of operation.
