Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2017014635A1] The invention is directed to a method for electrochemically reducing carbon dioxide, and to an electrochemical reactor. The method of the invention for electrochemically reducing carbon dioxide, comprises a) introducing a water feed to an anode compartment of an electrochemical reactor, said anode compartment comprising an anode; b) introducing a carbon dioxide feed to a cathode compartment of an electrochemical reactor, said cathode compartment comprising a cathode; c) applying an electrical potential between the anode and the cathode in the electrochemical reactor sufficient for the cathode to reduce carbon dioxide into a reduced carbon dioxide product or product mixture, wherein said anode compartment is separated from said cathode compartment by a separator comprising a bipolar membrane, a charge-mosaic membrane, or a layered mixture of anion and cation exchange resins, preferably the separator comprises a bipolar membrane, and wherein the pressure in the electrochemical reactor is 20 bara or more.
