GLYCOLIC-FORMIC ACID FLOWSHEET FINAL REPORT FOR DOWNSELECTION DECISION

Flowsheet testing was performed to develop the nitric-glycolic-formic acid flowsheet (referred to as the glycolic-formic flowsheet throughout the rest of the report) as an alternative to the nitric/formic flowsheet currently being processed at the DWPF. This new flowsheet has shown that mercury can be removed in the Sludge Receipt and Adjustment Tank (SRAT) with minimal hydrogen generation. All processing objectives were also met, including greatly reducing the Slurry Mix Evaporator (SME) product yield stress as compared to the baseline nitric/formic flowsheet. Forty-six runs were performed in total, including the baseline run and the melter feed preparation runs. Significant results are summarized. The baseline nitric/formic flowsheet run, using the SB6 simulant produced by Harrell was extremely difficult to process successfully under existing DWPF acceptance criteria with this simulant at the HM levels of noble metals. While nitrite was destroyed and mercury was removed to near the DWPF limit, the rheology of the SRAT and SME products were well above design basis and hydrogen generation far exceeded the DWPF SRAT limit. In addition, mixing during the SME cycle was very poor. In this sense, the nitric/glycolic/formic acid flowsheet represents a significant upgrade over the current flowsheet. Mercury was successfully removed with almost no hydrogen generation and the SRAT and SME products yield stresses were within process limits or previously processed ranges. The glycolic-formic flowsheet has a very wide processing window. Testing was completed from 100% to 200% of acid stoichiometry and using a glycolic-formic mixture from 40% to 100% glycolic acid. The testing met all processing requirements throughout these processing windows. This should allow processing at an acid stoichiometry of 100% and a glycolic-formic mixture of 80% glycolic acid with minimal hydrogen generation. It should also allow processing endpoints in the SRAT and SME at significantly higher total solids content and may be effective at acid stoichiometries below 100%, although no testing was performed below 100% acid stoichiometry. There are several issues related to the development of the glycolic-formic flowsheet. First, the measurement of anions using the new glycolate anion procedure likely needs to be optimized to improve the accuracy of the anions important to DWPF processing and REDOX prediction. Second, the existing REDOX equation with an added term for glycolate did not accurately predict the glass REDOX for the glycolic-formic flowsheet. Improvement of the anion measurement or modification of the REDOX methodology or equation may be necessary to improve the REDOX prediction. Last, the glycolic-formic flowsheet dissolves a number of metals, including iron. This leads to a thinner slurries but also dissolves up a portion of the iron, which is currently used for criticality control. It is recommended that DWPF continue to support development of the glycolic-formic flowsheet. This flowsheet meets or outperforms the baseline flowsheet in off-gas generation, mercury removal, product rheology and general ease of processing. Additional testing is in progress to demonstrate the effectiveness of the nitric-glycolic-formic flowsheet in processing a wide sludge processing window using the matrix sludge simulants.

Reaction of Formic Acid over Amorphous Manganese Oxide Catalytic Systems: An In Situ Study

The interaction of formic acid with amorphous manganese oxide (AMO) is investigated using in situ photoelectron and infrared spectroscopy techniques. Soft X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (sXPS) and in situ FTIR illustrate two possible modes of formate bound species at the AMO surface. Two peaks in the IR region from 1340-1390 cm{sup -1} are indicative of formate species bound to the surface in a bidentate configuration. However, a 224 cm{sup -1} band gap between v{sub s}OCO and v{sub as}OCO suggests formate is bound in a bridging configuration. Temperature-programmed desorption studies confirm the formate bound species desorbs as carbon dioxide from the surface at multiple binding sites. At temperatures above 700 K, the presence of K{sup +} {hor_ellipsis} OC complex suggests the bound species interacts at vacant sites related to framework oxygen and cation mobility.

Highly robust hydrogen generation by bio-inspired Ir complexes for dehydrogenation of formic acid in water: Experimental and theoretical mechanistic investigations at different pH

Hydrogen generation from formic acid (FA), one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials, has attracted much attention due to the demand for the development of renewable energy carriers. Catalytic dehydrogenation of FA in an efficient and green manner remains challenging. Here, we report a series of bio-inspired Ir complexes for highly robust and selective hydrogen production from FA in aqueous solutions without organic solvents or additives. One of these complexes bearing an imidazoline moiety (complex 6 ) achieved a turnover frequency (TOF) of 322,000 h⁻¹ at 100 °C, which is higher than ever reported. The novel catalysts are very stable and applicable in highly concentrated FA. For instance, complex 3 (1 μmol) affords an unprecedented turnover number (TON) of 2,050,000 at 60 °C. Deuterium kinetic isotope effect experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations employing a “speciation” approach demonstrated a change in the rate-determining step with increasing solution pH. This study provides not only more insight into the mechanism of dehydrogenation of FA but also offers a new principle for the design of effective homogeneous organometallic catalysts for H₂ generation from FA.

Unimolecular and bimolecular formic acid decomposition routes on dispersed Cu nanoparticles

The elementary steps and site requirements in formic acid (HCOOH) dehydrogenation on Cu surfaces remain of keen interest because formate species act as intermediates or spectators in methanol synthesis and water–gas shift reactions. Steady-state and transient kinetic data, isotopic effects, infrared spectra during catalytic and stoichiometric reactions, and theoretical treatments based on density functional theory (DFT) provide evidence for bimolecular reactions, in which saturated bidentate formate (*HCOO*) adlayers, present at 0.25 ML (0.25 *HCOO* per surface Cu atom), react with undissociated species (HCOOH$^\square$) bound at interstices within formate adlayers ($^\square$) to form H-bonded bimolecular HCOOH$^\square$-*HCOO* adducts. The co-existence of vicinal HCOOH$^\square$ and *HCOO* moieties is evident from antisymmetric infrared bands for *HCOO* that become stronger as a result of their H-bonding that perturbs the induced dipole moment of *HCOO* upon vibration, consistent with DFT-derived vibrational frequencies and intensities for such perturbed species. The *HCOO* moiety in this complex undergoes C-H activation via a transition state that is preferentially stabilized through H-bonding with the vicinal HCOOH$^\square$ relative to its *HCOO* precursor. DFT-derived HCOOH dehydrogenation activation barriers and those determined from the evolution of CO 2 from pre-adsorbed *HCOO* species are about 10 kJ mol -1 smaller in the presence of gaseous HCOOH reactants (because of HCOOH$^\square$-*HCOO* interactions) than those for the unimolecular decomposition of bound *HCOO* species. Such bimolecular routes are consistent with measured effects of HCOOH, H 2 , and CO pressures and of H/D isotopic substitution on dehydrogenation turnover rates and represent the predominant channel for the formation of CO 2 and H 2 during catalytic HCOOH dehydrogenation on Cu nanoparticles. A saturated *HCOO* adlayer that retains binding interstices and the presence of HCOOH(g) enable a sequence of elementary steps unavailable for *HCOO* species, thus circumventing unassisted unimolecular routes that exhibit higher activation barriers.

The Role of Surface Hydroxyls in Dehydration and Dehydrogenation of Formic Acid on Fe 3 O 4 (001)

Understanding the role of surface structure and hydroxylation in catalytic reactions on metal oxide surfaces is important for developing a mechanistic insight into the complex interface processes. Here, we investigate the reactivity of formic acid on reconstructed Fe 3 O 4 (001) using a combination of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reaction spectroscopy, low energy electron diffraction, and electronic structure calculations. We find that formic acid initially dissociates at low temperatures (< 80 K) into bidentate formate and a hydroxyl up to an initial dosed coverage of two HCOOH per Fe 3 O 4 (001) unit cell. At higher temperatures (> 450 K), formate largely decomposes along the dehydration pathway, producing CO and H 2 O, with dehydrogenation to CO 2 being a minority side reaction. As a first step, water formation leads to surface oxygen extraction via the Mars-van Krevelen mechanism. Computational studies reveal formate embedded in oxygen vacancies as a key intermediate in the CO formation mechanism. CO formation proceeds via two reaction pathways with desorption that peaks at 530 K on the hydroxyl-rich surface and 560 K on the hydroxyl-deficient surface. Atomic hydrogen coadsorption experiments and ab initio calculations reveal that the presence of surface hydroxyls reduces the CO formation barrier. Furthermore, these results highlight the complex interactions between substrate and intermediate species occurring during reactions on metal oxide surfaces.

Functionalized Hydroperoxide Formation from the Reaction of Methacrolein-Oxide, an Isoprene-Derived Criegee Intermediate, with Formic Acid: Experiment and Theory

Methacrolein oxide (MACR-oxide) is a four-carbon, resonance-stabilized Criegee intermediate produced from isoprene ozonolysis, yet its reactivity is not well understood. This study identifies the functionalized hydroperoxide species, 1-hydroperoxy-2-methylallyl formate (HPMAF), generated from the reaction of MACR-oxide with formic acid using multiplexed photoionization mass spectrometry (MPIMS, 298 K = 25 °C, 10 torr = 13.3 hPa). Electronic structure calculations indicate the reaction proceeds via an energetically favorable 1,4-addition mechanism. The formation of HPMAF is observed by the rapid appearance of a fragment ion at m/z 99, consistent with the proposed mechanism and characteristic loss of HO2 upon photoionization of functional hydroperoxides. The identification of HPMAF is confirmed by comparison of the appearance energy of the fragment ion with theoretical predictions of its photoionization threshold. The results are compared to analogous studies on the reaction of formic acid with methyl vinyl ketone oxide (MVK-oxide), the other four-carbon Criegee intermediate in isoprene ozonolysis.

Tailoring the composition of ultrathin, ternary alloy PtRuFe nanowires for the methanol oxidation reaction and formic acid oxidation reaction

In the search for alternatives to conventional Pt electrocatalysts, we have synthesized ultrathin, ternary PtRuFe nanowires (NW), possessing different chemical compositions in order to probe their CO tolerance as well as electrochemical activity as a function of composition for both (i) the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) and (ii) the formic acid oxidation reaction (FAOR). As-prepared ‘multifunctional’ ternary NW catalysts exhibited both higher MOR and FAOR activity as compared with binary Pt₇Ru₃ NW, monometallic Pt NW, and commercial catalyst control samples. In terms of synthetic novelty, we utilized a sustainably mild, ambient wet-synthesis method never previously applied to the fabrication of crystalline, pure ternary systems in order to fabricate ultrathin, homogeneous alloy PtRuFe NWs with a range of controlled compositions. Thus, these NWs were subsequently characterized using a suite of techniques including XRD, TEM, SAED, and EDAX in order to verify not only the incorporation of Ru and Fe into the Pt lattice but also their chemical homogeneity, morphology, as well as physical structure and integrity. Lastly, these NWs were electrochemically tested in order to deduce the appropriateness of conventional explanations such as (i) the bi-functional mechanism as well as (ii) the ligand effect to account for our MOR and FAOR reaction data. Specifically, methanol oxidation appears to be predominantly influenced by the Ru content, whereas formic acid oxidation is primarily impacted by the corresponding Fe content within the ternary metal alloy catalyst itself.

CO2 Electrolyzer to Produce Formic Acid Using Flue Gas at Industry Relevant Current Density

The electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable fuels and feedstocks has gained great attention recently due to the global urgency to mitigate the rapid climate change. A wide variety of chemicals can be obtained through the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR). Among all the chemicals generated through CO2RR, formic acid has attracted great interest because of its wide applications in silage preservation in agriculture, as an antibacterial agent in animal food additives, as a chemical additive in leather and tanning processing, as a chemical component in textile dyeing and finishing, as a reagent in pharmaceutical and chemical synthesis, and as deicing agents and a component in drilling fluids. Recently, the use of formic acid as a feedstock for biorefineries has also attracted increasing interest.

Cross-Scale Catalyst Modeling Applied to H 2 Storage and Release via Formic Acid

Here, we propose the Systems-to-Atoms (S2A) modeling framework that integrates the kinetics of reaction chemistry and structural configurations across various length scales with the aim of establishing a versatile template for multiscale modeling of reactive flow problems and to predict the operando activity of catalyst materials. The approach encompasses a microkinetic model to analyze surface reactions on individual facets of catalyst nanoparticles coupled with the computation of average surface reaction rates for catalyst nanoparticles of specific size distributions. Macro-homogeneous surface reaction kinetics are derived as a function of catalyst loading and used as input parameters for the continuum-scale reactor model. The cross-scale framework enables the optimization of catalyst utilization through reactor design and operating strategy. To demonstrate the framework, we studied the storage and release of hydrogen from formic acid, a promising liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC), over Pd, Pt, and Cu catalysts. The framework predicts observed trends in formic acid dehydrogenation activity for catalysts with comparable weight loadings and metal particle diameters, demonstrating satisfactory quantitative alignment. Finally, the seamless transmission of parameter uncertainties between scales is also discussed.

Adsorption of formic acid on rutile TiO{sub 2} (110) revisited: An infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory study

Formic acid (HCOOH) adsorption on rutile TiO{sub 2} (110) has been studied by s- and p-polarized infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS) and spin-polarized density functional theory together with Hubbard U contributions (DFT+U) calculations. To compare with IRRAS spectra, the results from the DFT+U calculations were used to simulate IR spectra by employing a three-layer model, where the adsorbate layer was modelled using Lorentz oscillators with calculated dielectric constants. To account for the experimental observations, four possible formate adsorption geometries were calculated, describing both the perfect (110) surface, and surfaces with defects; either O vacancies or hydroxyls. The majority species seen in IRRAS was confirmed to be the bridging bidentate formate species with associated symmetric and asymmetric frequencies of the ν(OCO) modes measured to be at 1359 cm{sup −1} and 1534 cm{sup −1}, respectively. The in-plane δ(C–H) wagging mode of this species couples to both the tangential and the normal component of the incident p-polarized light, which results in absorption and emission bands at 1374 cm{sup −1} and 1388 cm{sup −1}. IRRAS spectra measured on surfaces prepared to be either reduced, stoichiometric, or to contain surplus O adatoms, were found to be very similar. By comparisons with computed spectra, it is proposed that in our experiments, formate binds as a minority species to an in-plane Ti{sub 5c} atom and a hydroxyl, rather than to O vacancy sites, the latter to a large extent being healed even at our UHV conditions. Excellent agreement between calculated and experimental IRRAS spectra is obtained. The results emphasize the importance of protonation and reactive surface hydroxyls – even under UHV conditions – as reactive sites in e.g., catalytic applications.

HOCO formation in astrochemical environments by radical-induced H-abstraction from formic acid

Rate constants for the radical-induced hydrogen abstraction from formic acid, HCOOH, are presented here. Only those reactions leading to the formation of HOCO were investigated. The astrochemically relevant radicals OH, NH 2 , and H were considered to induce the H-abstraction. Tunnelling was taken into account by using the instanton method for rate constant calculations. For reactions relevant on grain surfaces, the unimolecular rate constant is of particular importance. For the reactions with OH and NH 2 , a corresponding deep pre-reactive minimum can be found that contributes to the barrier height and thus slows down the reaction. In general though, abstraction induced by OH radicals is found to be the fastest. The reaction with the H atoms becomes increasingly important at low temperatures, because of the narrow barrier through which tunnelling is efficient. In conclusion, the reaction with NH 2 radicals has both a high and broad barrier and consequently shows significantly smaller low-temperature rate constants.

The catalyst with an N-phenylpicolinamide ligand exhibited a TOF of 118 000 h -1 at 60 °C. A constant rate (TOF>35 000 h -1 ) was maintained for six hours, and a TON of 1 000 000 was achieved at 50 °C.

Microwave measurements of the tropolone–formic acid doubly hydrogen bonded dimer

The microwave spectrum was measured for the doubly hydrogen bonded dimer formed between tropolone and formic acid. The predicted symmetry of this dimer was C{sub 2v}(M), and it was expected that the concerted proton tunneling motion would be observed. After measuring 25 a- and b-type rotational transitions, no splittings which could be associated with a concerted double proton tunneling motion were observed. The calculated barrier to the proton tunneling motion is near 15 000 cm{sup −1}, which would likely make the tunneling frequencies too small to observe in the microwave spectra. The rotational and centrifugal distortion constants determined from the measured transitions were A = 2180.7186(98) MHz, B = 470.873 90(25) MHz, C = 387.689 84(22) MHz, D{sub J} = 0.0100(14) kHz, D{sub JK} = 0.102(28) kHz, and D{sub K} = 13.2(81) kHz. The B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ calculated rotational constants were within 1% of the experimentally determined values.

Quantitative analysis of desorption and decomposition kinetics of formic acid on Cu(111): The importance of hydrogen bonding between adsorbed species

Quantitative analysis of desorption and decomposition kinetics of formic acid (HCOOH) on Cu(111) was performed by temperature programmed desorption (TPD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and time-resolved infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy. The activation energy for desorption is estimated to be 53–75 kJ/mol by the threshold TPD method as a function of coverage. Vibrational spectra of the first layer HCOOH at 155.3 K show that adsorbed molecules form a polymeric structure via the hydrogen bonding network. Adsorbed HCOOH molecules are dissociated gradually into monodentate formate species. The activation energy for the dissociation into monodentate formate species is estimated to be 65.0 kJ/mol at a submonolayer coverage (0.26 molecules/surface Cu atom). The hydrogen bonding between adsorbed HCOOH species plays an important role in the stabilization of HCOOH on Cu(111). The monodentate formate species are stabilized at higher coverages, because of the lack of vacant sites for the bidentate formation.

Effects of crystal phase and composition on structurally ordered Pt–Co–Ni/C ternary intermetallic electrocatalysts for the formic acid oxidation reaction

In this paper, to enhance the electrocatalytic performance of the formic acid oxidation reaction (FAOR), structurally ordered face-centered tetragonal (fct) Pt–Co–Ni/C intermetallic nanoparticles were synthesized via an impregnation reduction method, followed by post heat-treatment. It was found that an ordered intermetallic PtCo phase prevails rather than PtNi as the principal part for the ternary Pt–Co–Ni alloy after being annealed at high temperature, namely, Ni atoms merely serve as the substitute for Co in the lattice of Pt–Co–Ni intermetallics possessing the same atomic stack as PtCo intermetallics. In addition, there is a limitation for Ni to replace Co for the intermetallic PtCo phase, otherwise, most likely excessive Ni would replace the Pt atoms and damage the atomically ordered structure. Benefiting from the ordered structural features and rational introduction of the third transition metal to modify the distance between Pt and Pt atoms, the Pt–Co–Ni/C ordered intermetallic nanoparticles exhibit an enhancement in catalytic activity for the FAOR compared with Pt/C, the PtNi/C alloy and ordered intermetallic PtCo/C nanoparticles. Furthermore, the presence of Ni in the ordered intermetallic Pt–Co–Ni/C catalyst leads to a noticeable improvement in durability compared with the ordered intermetallic PtCo/C catalyst. Finally, the present work reveals opportunities for the rational design of ternary electrocatalysts with enhanced catalytic performance for fuel cell applications.

Formic Acid: A Hydrogen-Bonding Cocatalyst for Formate Decomposition

Hydrogen bonding accelerates many catalytic reactions by orienting intermediates, stabilizing transition states, and even opening reaction pathways. However, most mechanistic studies regarding the decomposition of formic acid (FA), a promising hydrogen storage material, neglect hydrogen-bonding interactions even though FA is a strong hydrogen-bond donor and acceptor. Here, we probe the formation of bimolecular hydrogen-bonded complexes between FA and formate (FA–HCOO complexes) adsorbed on metal surfaces and how these complexes affect HCOO* decomposition. Using first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations on 12 close-packed (111)/(0001) and 8 open (100) surfaces of 12 transition metals—Ag, Au, Co, Cu, Ir, Ni, Os, Re, Pd, Pt, Rh, and Ru, we—show that FA–HCOO complexes are generally thermodynamically stable, even at elevated temperatures and pressures. We then illustrate that these complexes produce infrared spectroscopic signatures consistent with as yet unassigned experimental peaks. We last demonstrate that by stabilizing the dangling bond of monodentate HCOO*, these complexes significantly lower the barriers for rotation of HCOO* from a bidentate to a monodentate configuration, the rate-limiting step for HCOO* decomposition on many surfaces. FA thus acts as a cocatalyst for HCOO* decomposition. Our results may guide the community toward improved catalysts for reactions involving HCOO* such as FA decomposition, methanol steam reforming, and the water gas shift reaction. More broadly, our work highlights the ability of hydrogen bonding to modify the adsorbed structures of intermediates and lower the barriers for their reaction on heterogeneous catalysts. Lastly, this phenomenon can be relevant for other reactions involving ammonia, alcohols, and carboxylic acids.

2D Metal/Graphene and 2D Metal/Graphene/Metal Systems for Electrocatalytic Conversion of CO 2 to Formic Acid

Efficiently transforming CO 2 into renewable energy sources is crucial for decarbonization efforts. Formic acid (HCOOH) holds great promise as a hydrogen storage compound due to its high hydrogen density, non-toxicity, and stability under ambient conditions. However, the electrochemical reduction of CO 2 (CO 2 RR) on conventional carbon black-supported metal catalysts faces challenges such as low stability through dissolution and agglomeration, as well as suffering from high overpotentials and the necessity to overcome the competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In this study, we modify the physical/chemical properties of metal surfaces by depositing metal monolayers on graphene (M/G) to create highly active and stable electrocatalysts. Strong covalent bonding between graphene and metal is induced by the hybridization of sp and d orbitals, especially the sharp $d_{z^2}$, $d_{yz}$, $d_{xz}$ orbitals of metals near the Fermi level, playing a decisive role. Moreover, charge polarization on graphene in M/G enables the deposition of another thin metallic film, forming metal/graphene/metal (M/G/M) structures. Finally, evaluating overpotentials required for CO 2 reduction to HCOOH, CO, and HER, we find that Pd/G, Pt/G/Ag, and Pt/G/Au exhibit excellent activity and selectivity toward HCOOH production. Our novel 2D hybrid catalyst design methodology may offer insights into enhanced electrochemical reactions through the electronic mixing of metal and other p-block elements.
