Description
Summary:Carbonate hydrogenation to formate is a promising route to convert captured carbon dioxide into valuable chemicals, thus reducing carbon emissions and creating a revenue return. Developing inexpensive catalysts with high activity, selectivity, and stability remains challenging. We report a supported non‐noble metal catalyst, Ni/TiO 2 , with great selectivity over 96 % and excellent stability in catalyzing the conversion of carbonate into formate in aqueous solution. Ni 0 and Ni 2+ species are both observed in Ni/TiO 2 catalysts, and the synergistic effect of these two Ni components leads to high activity and high selectivity of carbonate hydrogenation to formate.
