▎ 摘　　要

Recently, the utilization of formic acid (FA) or formate as promising hydrogen carriers through the interconversion between CO2 and HCOOH or HCO3- and HCOO-, respectively, has attracted increasing research interest. In this work, a PdAu bimetallic catalyst supported on phenylenediamine-alkalized reduced graphene oxide (Pd0.5Au0.5/PDA-rGO) was developed for catalyzing bicarbonate hydrogenation under basic conditions as well as FA/formate dehydrogenation under acidic and basic conditions. Without any additives, a very high yield (94%) of potassium formate (PF) can be achieved from the hydrogenation of potassium bicarbonate at 50 degrees C for 16 h. On the other hand, initial TOFs of 1.63 X 10(3) and 6.98 X 10(3) h-(1) were accomplished in the dehydrogenations of 6 mol/L PF and 8 mol/L FA, respectively, at 80 degrees C. This work successfully demonstrates highly efficient CO2 hydrogenation and is the first report of a Pd-based heterogeneous catalyst for the additive-free dehydrogenation of concentrated (>6 mol/L) PF or FA solution. It significantly enhanced the hydrogen capacity and is of great interest for practical applications. The good performance of this catalyst is probably attributed to (i) the nanosized (1.8 +/- 0.5 nm) metal particles, (ii) the presence of an amine group on the support, which can act as a proton scavenger, and (iii) the additional Au component prohibiting CO formation and enhancing the durability of the catalyst even in high concentration FA/formate solutions.
