Kinetics and mechanisms of the reverse Boudouard reaction over metal carbonates in connection with the reactions of solid carbon with the metal carbonates
Literature Information
The decomposition processes of alkali or alkaline earth carbonates with a large excess of carbon, and the reverse Boudouard reaction given by CO2/C→2CO over metal carbonates, were compared. The carbonates of Li+, Na+, K+, Cs+, Sr2+ and Ba2+ generated CO exclusively by an intermolecular redox reaction given by CO32-+C→2CO+O2-. The reverse Boudouard reaction over these metal carbonates at 700°C proceeded at a steady rate until just before the carbon was completely consumed, and in the cases of Li+, Sr2+ and Ba2+, the rates agreed with the initial rates of the intermolecular redox reaction. On the other hand, the rates over the carbonates of Na+, K+ and Cs+, the oxides of which undergo a disproportionation reaction to produce gas-phase metal and liquid-phase metal peroxide, were much higher than the initial rates of the intermolecular redox reaction. This discrepancy can be explained by the presence of a catalytic process on the metal-covered surface of the silica wool that was used for preventing the highly basic gas-phase metals from escaping.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
