Electrochemical metal recycling
Abstract
Recycling of critical materials, regeneration of waste, and responsible catalyst manufacture have been repeatedly documented as essential for a sustainable future with respect to the environment and energy production. Electrochemical methods have become increasingly recognized as capable of achieving these goals, and “impact” electrochemistry, with the advantages associated with dynamic nanoelectrodes, has recently emerged as a prime candidate for the recovery of metals from solution. In this report, the nanoimpact technique is used to generate carbon-supported palladium catalysts from low-concentration palladium(II) chloride solutions (i.e., a waste stream mimic) as a proof of concept. Subsequently, the catalytic properties of this material in both synthesis (Suzuki coupling reaction) and electrocatalysis (hydrogen evolution) are demonstrated. Transient reductive impact signals are shown and analyzed at potentials negative of +0.4 V (vs SCE) corresponding to the onset of palladium deposition in traditional voltammetry. Direct evidence of Pd modification was obtained through characterization by environmental scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis of impacted particles. This showed the formation of deposits of Pd0 partially covering the 50 nm carbon black particles with approximately 14% Pd (wt %) under the conditions used. This material was then used to demonstrate the conversion of iodobenzene into its biphenyl product (confirmed through nuclear magnetic resonance) and the successful production of hydrogen as an electrocatalyst under acidic conditions (under cyclic voltammetry).
