Silver-Doped Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework (Ag@ZIF-8): An Efficient Electrocatalyst for CO2 Conversion to Syngas

To enable the reuse of carbon dioxide (CO2), electrocatalytic reduction CO2 (CO2RR) into syngas with a controllable H2/CO ratio is considered cost-effective and intriguing approach. Here, number silver (Ag)-doped, zeolitic imidazole framework composites were prepared by facile method. The outcomes demonstrate that electroreduction on Ag-doped ZIF-8 catalysts produces just CO H2, without having any liquid fuel, resulting in total faradaic efficiency approaching 100%. most optimal Ag-Zn-ZIF-8 (10% Ag, 90% Zn) demonstrates good selectivity for (CO H2) can be easily adjusted from 3:1 to 1:3 (H2/CO) changing applied voltage during conversion process.
