Researchers realize electrochemical conversion of CH4 and O2 to HCOOH at room temperature. Credit: JACSRecently, a research group led by Prof. Dehui Deng, Assoc. Prof. Xiaoju Cui and Liang Yu from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences realized the electrochemical conversion of CH conversion process with high overpotential and low Faradaic efficiency , the high-pressure electro-Fenton process achieved an HCOOH Faradaic efficiency of 81.
38 V. The HCOOH productivity was 11.5 mmol hReference: “High-Pressure Electro-Fenton Driving CH4 Conversion by O2 at Room Temperature” by Yao Song, Xiao Yang, Huan Liu, Suxia Liang, Yafeng Cai, Wenqiang Yang, Kaixin Zhu, Liang Yu, Xiaoju Cui and Dehui Deng, 26 January 2024, SciTechDaily: Home of the best science and technology news since 1998.
