Viability of transition metal decorated phosphorene nanoflakes as catalysts for carbon dioxide reduction: A theoretical study
The reduction of CO2 using transition metal-decorated phosphorene catalysts was investigated via computational methods. Calculations revealed that metal-phosphorene interactions modulate catalytic activity. Phosphorene nanoflakes decorated with metals exhibited Gibbs free binding energies between −73.3 and − 83.2 kcal/mol, with Mn showing the highest binding energy. Reaction pathway studies indicated that CO2 reduction with H2 favors HCOOH formation over CO. Subsequent reduction of HCOOH to CH2O and CH3OH displayed lower energy barriers for Mn and Fe, while Ni showed inferior efficacy. CH4 formation from MeOH required high activation energies, becoming viable only under moderate heating (400 K). Results highlighted selectivity toward HCOOH and CH3OH, avoiding direct CH4 formation from CH2O due to prohibitive kinetic barriers. Mn- and Fe-decorated phosphorene systems emerged as promising catalysts for CO2 reduction, offering high activity and selectivity at ambient or moderately heated conditions, whereas Ni exhibited limitations.
