摘　　要：电催化氮还原合成氨在常压下进行,能克服高耗能、高CO_(2)排放等问题,是最有希望替代传统方法的新型技术之一。用于电催化合成氨反应的电解质材料按照工作原理和组成可以分为固体氧化物电解质、熔融盐电解质、聚合物膜电解质以及液体电解质等,工作温度依次降低。本文从电解质出发,综述了电催化合成氨工作原理、电极材料、生产速率和法拉第效率等方面的前沿理论和应用案例,指出了目前电催化氮还原合成氨领域面临着合成氨速率和法拉第效率低、电解质的质子传导效率不足、催化剂活性及稳定性不良等问题以及低温化的研究趋势,为深入探索电催化合成氨新方法提供理论支持和方向引导。Electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction to synthesize ammonia under normal pressure exhibits low energy consumption and low CO_(2)emissions,and is one of the most promising alternatives.In the electrocatalytic ammonia synthesizers,the electrolyte materials are mainly classified into solid oxide electrolytes,molten salt electrolytes,polymer membrane electrolytes,and liquid electrolytes,according to their working principles and compositions.The working temperature of these electrocatalytic ammonia synthesizers decreases little by little in the order listed above.In this article,the working principles of electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis,the materials of electrolytes and electrodes,the frontier theories of the Faraday efficiency and some application cases have been summarized.The current challenges have been pointed out such as the nitrogen electrocatalytic reduction,the insufficient proton conduction efficiency of the electrolyte,the low catalyst activity and stability,and the research trend of low temperature.The work has provided some theoretical supports and research directions for an in-depth exploration of the electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis process.
