摘要 作为一种温室气体和常见污染物，大气中的二氧化碳是由于化石燃料能源生产导致二氧化碳排放量增加而引起的气候变化的一个紧迫问题。作为应对气候变化努力的一部分，迫切需要一种捕获和转化二氧化碳的解决方案。金属二氧化碳电池代表了一种有前途的技术，可以捕获和回收二氧化碳，同时作为可再生能源网络的储能解决方案。尽管金属-CO2 研究非常活跃，但该技术仍处于早期阶段。因此，在实现实用的金属二氧化碳电池配置之前，需要了解更基本的机制。金属二氧化碳电池研究根据阳极材料（可以是锂、钠、锌、铝、镁或钾）深入研究各种材料和化学物质。本综述总结了不同金属二氧化碳电池的基本电化学和机制。还全面研究了金属-CO2电池的材料选择、设计考虑、电化学充放电机制以及催化行为。我们希望了解金属二氧化碳电池的基础电化学将有助于开发适用于广泛的碳捕获和能量存储应用的电池技术。
A B S T R A C T As a greenhouse gas and common pollutant, atmospheric CO2 is a pressing concern toward climate change caused by increased CO2 emissions driven by fossil fuel-based energy production. There is an urgent need for a solution to capture and convert CO2 as part of the effort to combat climate change. Metal-CO2 batteries represent a promising technology to capture and recycle carbon dioxide while serving as an energy storage solution for a renewable energy network. Though metal-CO2 research is very active, the technology is still in its very early stages. Therefore, more fundamental mechanisms need to be understood before a practical metal-CO2 battery configuration is realized. Metal-CO2 battery research delves into a large variety of materials and chemistries depending on the anode material, which can be lithium, sodium, zinc, aluminum, magnesium, or potassium. This review summarizes the fundamental electrochemistry and mechanisms of different metal-CO2 batteries. The material selection, design considerations, mechanisms of electrochemical charge and discharge, and catalyzed behaviors of metal-CO2 batteries are also comprehensively examined. We hope understanding the underlying electrochemistry of metal-CO2 batteries will promise the development of the battery technologies that are applicable to a broad range of both carbon capture and energy storage applications.
