Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a catalyst composite for conversion of methane gas, which includes Co3O4 nanoplates and ZrO2 nanoparticles adsorbed to the surface of the Co3O4 nanoplates, and is used for converting methane gas into alcohols, and a method for conversion of methane gas using the same. When using the catalyst composite, it is possible to convert methane gas into alcohols with high efficiency under a mild condition of room temperature and ambient pressure.
Claims17
An electrochemical catalyst for conversion of methane gas, which comprises:
- a conductive substrate selected from graphite paper, graphene, carbon black, copper, nickel and alumina;
- a catalyst composite layer for conversion of methane gas, formed on the conductive substrate;
- and
- optionally, a cover layer for protecting the catalyst composite layer for conversion of methane gas,
- wherein the catalyst composite layer comprises a support and ZrO2 nanoparticles adsorbed to the surface of the support, wherein the support has a structure of Co3O4 nanoplates or NiCo2O4 nanowires, and the catalyst composite is used for converting methane gas into alcohols.
