Converting CO2 into value-added compounds via photothermal catalysis is a promising strategy to reduce CO2 emission and might be a sustainable alternative to traditional fossil fuels. Here, we report nano-structured a Pt0.01Fe0.05-g-C3N4 hybrid catalyst synthesized via hydrothermal-method and further reduced under reaction condition for the reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reaction. Taking advantage of the photo-thermal effect caused by the near-infrared (NIR) and visible light responsive, the hybrid catalyst produces a remarkable activity (7.36 mmol•h-1•gcat-1) for CO2 reduction with CO selectivity (97%) under 300 W Xe lamp irradiation and CO2/H2 (V/V, 1/1) feed gas. The apparent activation energy of reaction decreases from 238.59 kJ/mol to 48.88 kJ/mol calculated by Arrhenius formula. In order to comprehend the good catalytic activity of Pt0.01Fe0.05-g-C3N4in the RWGS reaction, the catalyst is characterized with powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), spherical-aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (Cs-S/TEM) integrated with X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV-vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS),etc. for investigating the structural information, surface state, optical properties and so on. Results show that the presence of FeO x and Pt exhibits strong absorption in a wide range from UV to NIR regions. Low photoluminescence (PL) intensity at about 460 nm shows the suppressed photogenerated carrier recombination process of Pt0.01Fe0.05-g-C3N4 due to the heterojunction between FeO x and g-C3N4. Operando diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) under different reaction conditions is employed to investigate surface species and their evolution during the conversion of CO2 into CO and a broad IR absorption is observed due to hydrogen spillover from Pt to Fe3O4. Therefore, we propose a possible mechanism of photothermal catalytic CO2 reduction, involving separate activation of CO2 and H2 over Fe and Pt acitve sites. Our work present a high-performance Pt0.01Fe0.05-g-C3N4 catalyst for RWGS reaction and open a new vista of the design, synthesis and mechanism research of photothermal catalytic CO2 conversion in the future.
