Rice University reactor produces pure hydrogen peroxide solutions from water, air and electricity

  • The production of hydrogen peroxide can be much safer and simpler through a process developed at Rice University.
    A reactor developed by Haotian Wang and his colleagues at Rice’s Brown School of Engineering requires only air, water and electricity to make the valuable chemical in the desired concentration and high purity.
    Their electrosynthesis process, detailed in Science, uses an oxidized carbon nanoparticle-based catalyst and could enable point-of-use production of pure hydrogen peroxide solutions, eliminating the need to transport the concentrated chemical, which is hazardous.
    By using a solid electrolyte instead of traditional liquid electrolyte, it also eliminates the need for product separation or purification used in current processes, so no contaminating ions will be involved.
    “If we have electricity from a solar panel, we can literally get hydrogen peroxide from just sunlight, air and water,” said Wang. “We don’t need to involve organics or fossil fuel consumption. Hydrogen peroxide synthesis by traditional, huge chemical engineering plants generates organic wastes, consumes fossil fuels and emits carbon dioxide. What we’re doing is green synthesis.”
    Hydrogen peroxide is widely used as an antiseptic, a detergent, in cosmetics, as a bleaching agent and in water purification, among many other applications. The compound is produced in industrial concentrations of up to 60% solution with water, but in many common uses, the solution is far more diluted.

      ..... ... ... sarcasm I hope? permanganate can be reduced by nearly anything..peroxide is the reducing agent here.. you basically said hydrogen peroxide is such a strong oxidizer that it can't oxidize permanganate and reduces instead.

    • @ChristianMiersch
      @ChristianMiersch 3 роки тому

      Like Thetodor said... Permanganate is the oxidizing agent and gets reduced (Mn 7+ to Mn 4+). Peroxide here is the reducing agent and gets oxidized (O to O 2-). This also happens with diluted H2O2.

    • @CatboyChemicalSociety
      @CatboyChemicalSociety Рік тому +1

      cathode can be anything but the important thing is the special anode running at 500ma/cm^2 which causes OH* radicals to be attracted to the anode but with flow in the central compartment of an electrodialysis cell setup you are able to obtain H2O2 as this intermediate is caught up in the flow and gets pushed out of the setup instead of forming ozone at the anode.
      I will make a video of the special anode soon since I found someone who might hook me up with one.

    Sorry, but 1% by weight hydrogen peroxide as a raw product is far to low concentration to be considered industrially useful... therefore I believe that anthraquinone process (the traditional method for production of hydrogen peroxide ) will stay with us for a quite long time... especially that it is well established mass scale industrial production (millions of tones per year globally)...
