Carbon dioxide reduction in tandem with light-alkane dehydrogenation
Abstract
A greenhouse gas and mild oxidant, CO 2 can effect the oxidative dehydrogenation (CO 2-ODH) of light alkanes over heterogeneous catalysts. These catalysts are bifunctional in that they mediate CO 2 reduction while oxidizing the alkanes, most notably the C 2–C 4 components in shale gas. In this way, one obtains CO and alkenes as value-added products. Although desirable, this transformation has proven challenging in terms of catalyst design, with most catalysts for the CO 2-ODH being metal oxides that typically undergo rapid deactivation. More recently, bimetallic catalysts have been identified as promising systems to activate alkanes by either selectively cleaving C–H bonds to produce alkenes or breaking all the C–C and C–H bonds to produce the dry reforming products CO and H 2. This Review describes general trends in the CO 2-ODH of light alkanes. Furthermore, we will outline how to use a combined approach involving flow reactor experiments, in operando characterization and density functional theory to determine whether a catalyst is intrinsically active for CO 2-ODH or dry reforming.
