Palladium anchored Halide Perovskites for Solar-driven Diphenyl Carbonate Synthesis

Objective

Global CO2 emission dominated by burning fossil fuels is resulting in serious societal and environmental issues. To reduce CO2 emission, it is ultimately needed to move away from the reliance on fossil fuels and develop new processes and technologies for CO2 capture and transformation to value-added chemical and products. This project aims to develop and validate an innovative concept for solar energy-driven diphenyl carbonate— essential monomer for polycarbonate—synthesis by coupling CO2 reduction and phenol oxidation half reactions over palladium single atom supported bismuth-based porous halide perovskite photocatalyst. The proposal consists of key scientific and technological targets and objectives; i) modulation of band structure and creation of defects sites on morphology-controlled halide perovskites for anchoring of palladium single atom sites, which will result in a new class of hybrid materials, ii) demonstration of the proof of concept of CO2 reduction and phenol oxidation half-reactions, and the combination of their intermediates to form diphenyl carbonate over hybrid photocatalyst, which is an untouched research territory and has great scientific and technological potentials, iii) exploration and gaining insights about reaction mechanism by using state-of-the-art spectroscopic methods and theoretical predictions. This high-risk/high-gain project is expected to have far-reaching scientific, economic, technological, and societal impacts.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
