Накратко на български

Двуизмерни наноматериали на основата на бор се тестват като катализатори за превръщане на въглеродния диоксид в полезни продукти и за съхранение на водород. Те могат да заменят скъпите и редки метали, което помага за намаляване на емисиите и преминаване към устойчива енергия.

Novel Boron-Based Two Dimensional Materials as Heterogeneous Catalysts.

Context and overall objectives Climate change and the transition to sustainable energy systems require new technologies that can reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions while enabling clean fuel production and green chemical manufacturing. Catalysts, materials that accelerate chemical reactions, play a central role in these processes. However, most industrial catalysts rely on scarce or expensive metals, which limits scalability and sustainability. Developing efficient, stable, and affordable alternatives is therefore a major scientific and societal priority aligned with European climate and energy strategies. This project addressed this challenge by exploring a new class of materials: two-dimensional boron-based nanomaterials. These ultra-thin materials combine low weight, high strength, and unique electronic properties, making them promising candidates for advanced catalysis. The project aimed to design, synthesise, and test these materials as metal-free or low-metal catalysts for converting CO2 into useful products and for storing and transferring hydrogen; both key technologies for a circular carbon economy and renewable energy systems.

Цел на проекта

The proposal 2DBoroCat addresses synthesis, characterization and catalytic applications of borophene new wonder material thathas attracted extensive attention from the scientific community due to its intriguing properties. Despite the attractive properties ofborophene, lack of facile, low-cost and efficient production method restricted its industrial applications. Therefore, major focus have been given in developing a synthetic route to borophene, that outclasses the limitations of existing methods and modifies the present state-of-the-art synthesis. Further, it's use as catalyst in various industrially relevant transformations is suggested for the first time. Especiallythe proposal addresses one of the defining environmental, energy and societal challenges of 21st century: the conversion of CO2 tovalue added chemicals, especially LPG. Both thermal- as well as plasma- reactors will be used to accomplish the target of CO2 reduction. Plasma catalysis has the distinct advantage that the conversion can be achieved at a lower temperature and pressure compared to pure thermal catalysis. The proposal is highly novel and timely in the present context of global warming due to increasing anthropogenic CO2 emissions and diminishing fossil fuel reserves. In addition to this, other important reactions such as oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) and ammonia-borane hydrolysis etc. will also be investigated. 2DBoroCat is expected to create huge scientific, economical and societal impact in terms of CO2 mitigation strategies.
