摘　　要：本实验设计了一种利用可再生能源提供的电能驱动的聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯(PET)塑料电催化升级再造策略,将废弃PET塑料成功转化为对苯二甲酸、二甲酸钾等高附加值化学品,同时联产氢气(H_(2))。具体实验过程包括:首先通过水热法将PET塑料进行降解得到对苯二甲酸和乙二醇单体,随后利用自制的水滑石(LDH)催化剂将乙二醇选择性电催化氧化为甲酸盐同时阴极联产H_(2),最后将反应液经酸化、减压过滤、旋蒸、真空干燥等分离提纯步骤得到二甲酸钾和对苯二甲酸产品。本实验是将科研成果引入教学的典型案例,不仅为废弃PET塑料资源的绿色升级再造提供了新思路,而且有利于培养学生的科学思维能力,激发科学研究的兴趣。This experiment designs a PET(polyethylene terephthalate)plastic electrocatalysis upgrading and regeneration strategy driven by renewable energy,converting discarded PET plastic into high-value-added chemicals such as terephthalic acid and potassium formate,while simultaneously co-producing hydrogen(H_(2)).The specific experimental process includes firstly degrading PET plastic into terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol monomer through hydrothermal method,then selectively electrocatalyzing the oxidation of ethylene glycol to formate using a self-made hydrotalcite catalyst(layered double hydroxide,LDH)while co-producing H_(2)at the cathode,and finally obtaining potassium formate and terephthalic acid products through separation and purification steps such as acidification,vacuum filtration,rotary evaporation,and vacuum drying.This experiment is a typical case of introducing research results into teaching,providing new ideas for the green upgrading and regeneration of discarded PET plastic resources,and promoting students’scientific thinking ability and interest in scientific research.
