Abstract

Several trimetallic ferrites with different ratios of Cu, Fe, and Mn were synthesized by direct decomposition method and tested for chemical looping combustion of methane, synthesis gas, and carbon. For comparison, several bimetallic ferrites were also tested, and NiFe₂O₄ and CuFe₂O₄ showed the best performance. During a 55-cycle test, trimetallic CuFeMnO₄ showed better overall performance than both NiFe₂O₄ and CuFe₂O₄, which had shown the best performance among the bimetallic ferrites for CLC of methane. From all the trimetallic oxygen carriers with different atomic ratios of Cu, Fe, and Mn, CuFeMnO₄, CuFeMn₂O₄, and CuFe_0.5Mn_1.5O₄ showed the best performance for CLC of methane. The oxygen carriers CuFeMnO₄, CuFeMn₂O₄, and CuFe_0.5Mn_1.5O₄, even without a support, showed very stable performance during a 100-cycle TGA test. The CuFeMnO₄ oxygen carrier also showed excellent performance during a multicycle CLC test with synthesis gas. In conclusion, CuFeMnO₄ is also suitable for CLC of a solid fuel, such as carbon, which showed stable performance during a 10-cycle test.

Unique phase identification of trimetallic copper iron manganese oxygen carrier using simultaneous differential scanning calorimetry/thermogravimetric analysis during chemical looping combustion reactions with methane

Journal Article Benincosa, William ; Siriwardane, Ranjani ; Tian, Hanjing ; ... - Applied Energy

Chemical looping combustion (CLC) is a promising combustion technology that generates heat and sequestration-ready carbon dioxide that is undiluted by nitrogen from the combustion of carbonaceous fuels with an oxygen carrier, or metal oxide. This process is highly dependent on the reactivity and stability of the oxygen carrier. The development of oxygen carriers remains one of the major barriers for commercialization of CLC. Synthetic oxygen carriers, consisting of multiple metal components, have demonstrated enhanced performance and improved CLC operation compared to single metal oxides. However, identification of the complex mixed metal oxide phases that form after calcination or during CLCmore »« less

Mesoporous CuFe ₂ O ₄ Photoanodes for Solar Water Oxidation: Impact of Surface Morphology on the Photoelectrochemical Properties**

Journal Article Einert, Marcus ; Waheed, Arslan ; Moritz, Dominik C. ; ... - Chemistry - A European Journal

Abstract Metal oxide‐based photoelectrodes for solar water splitting often utilize nanostructures to increase the solid‐liquid interface area. This reduces charge transport distances and increases the photocurrent for materials with short minority charge carrier diffusion lengths. While the merits of nanostructuring are well established, the effect of surface order on the photocurrent and carrier recombination has not yet received much attention in the literature. To evaluate the impact of pore ordering on the photoelectrochemical properties, mesoporous CuFe ₂ O ₄ (CFO) thin film photoanodes were prepared by dip‐coating and soft‐templating. Here, the pore order and geometry can be controlled by additionmore »« less

Rapid Flame-Annealed CuFe₂O₄ as Efficient Photocathode for Photoelectrochemical Hydrogen Production

Journal Article Park, Sangwook ; Baek, Ji Hyun ; Zhang, Liang ; ... - ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering

Copper ferrite (CuFe₂O₄) possesses an indirect bandgap in the range of 1.54–1.95 eV. It is used as an attractive p-type photocathode in photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting, and theoretically it can yield a maximum photocurrent density of ~27 mA/cm² and a maximum solar-to-hydrogen conversion efficiency of ~33%. To date, only a few reports have been published on CuFe₂O₄ photocathodes with very low-photocurrent densities, with a maximum value of 0.4 mA/cm2 at 0.4 V vs RHE. Herein, we prepared a CuFe₂O₄ photocathode on FTO glass with the sol–gel method followed by either high-temperature flame annealing or furnace annealing. We found that themore »« less

A Strategy for Increasing the Efficiency of the Oxygen Reduction Reaction in Mn-Doped Cobalt Ferrites

Journal Article Xiong, Yin ; Yang, Yao ; Feng, Xinran ; ... - Journal of the American Chemical Society

Alkaline fuel cells have drawn increasing attention as next-generation energy-conversion devices for electrical vehicles, since high pH enables the use of non-precious-metal catalysts. Herein, we report on a family of rationally designed Mn-doped cobalt ferrite (MCF) spinel nanocrystals, with an optimal composition Mn_0.8(CoFe₂)_0.73O₄ (MCF-0.8), that are effective electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction. MCF-0.8 exhibits a half-wave potential (E_1/2) of 0.89 V vs RHE in 1 M NaOH, only 0.02 V less than that of commercial Pt/C under identical testing conditions and, to the best of our knowledge, one of the highest recorded values in the literature. Moreover, MCF-0.8 exhibitsmore »« less
