• W2785513675 abstract "Synopsis of thesis entitled “Electrochemical and Photoelectrochemical Investigations of Co, Mn and Ir-based Catalysts for Water Splitting” by Ahamed Irshad M (SR No: 02-01-02-10-11-11-1-08823) under the supervision of Prof. N. Munichandraiah, Department of Inorganic and Physical Chemistry, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore (India), for the Ph.D. degree of the Institute under the Faculty of Science. Hydrogen is considered as the fuel for future owing to its high gravimetric energy density and eco-friendly use. In addition, H2 is an important feedstock in Haber process for ammonia synthesis and petroleum refining. Although, it is the most abundant element in the universe, elemental hydrogen is not available in large quantities on the planet. Consequently, H2 must be produced from its various chemical compounds available on earth. Currently, H2 is produced in large scale from methane by a process called steam-methane reforming (SMR). This process releases huge amount of CO2 into atmosphere as the by-product causing serious environmental issues. The development of alternate clean methods to generate H2 is a key challenge for the realization of hydrogen economy. Production of H2 gas by water splitting using electricity or sunlight is known. Low cost, high natural abundance and carbon neutrality make water as the best source of hydrogen. Thermodynamically, splitting of H2O needs 237 kJ mol-1 of energy, which corresponds to 1.23 V according to the equation, ΔG = -nFE. However, commercial electrolyzers usually operate between 1.8 to 2.1 V, due to the need of large overvoltage. The high overvoltage and subsequent energy losses are mainly associated with the sluggish kinetics of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at the anode and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) at the cathode. The overvoltage can be considerably reduced using suitable catalysts. Hence, the design and development of stable, robust and highly active catalysts for OER and HER are essential to make water splitting efficient and economical. Attempts in the direction of preparing several novel OER and HER catalysts, physicochemical characterizations and their electrochemical or photoelectrochemical activity are described in the thesis. A comprehensive review of the literature on various types of catalysts, thermodynamics, kinetics and mechanisms of catalysis are provided in the Chapter 1 of the thesis. Chapter 2 furnishes a brief description on various experimental techniques and procedures adopted at different stages of the present studies. Chapter 3 explains the results of the studies on kinetics of deposition and stability of Nocera’s Co-phosphate (Co-Pi) catalyst using electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). The in-situ mass measurements during CV experiments on Au electrode confirm the deposition of Co-Pi at potential above 0.87 V vs. Ag/AgCl, 3 M KCl (Fig.1a and b). The catalyst is found to deposit via a nucleus mediated process at a rate of 1.8 ng s-1 from 0.5 mM Co2+ in 0.1 M neural phosphate solution at 1.0 V. Further studies on the…" @default.
