The direct conversion of waste paper (cellulose) aerogel into a useful product (porous carbon) via an ionothermal technique for electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR) is a promising approach. Porous carbon is utilized for heavy metal removal, CO2 absorption, and variety of other purposes. CO2RR, on the other hand, is constrained by a low faradic efficiency (FE) and a high potential. For the time being, precious metal electrocatalysts are being used to solve these issues. However, the main difficulties are low CO2 dissolution capacity, the generation of many by-products, and the lack of catalyst stability. Given these constraints, our primary goal is to substitute this precious metal electrocatalyst by forming uniform high porosity carbon from cheaply available waste paper (cellulose) by optimizing the reaction conditions. Interestingly, a significant improvement in CO2RR was found under normal conditions. |
