  2. Sabatier reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabatier_reaction

    Paul Sabatier (1854-1941) winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1912 and discoverer of the reaction in 1897. The Sabatier reaction or Sabatier process produces methane and water from a reaction of hydrogen with carbon dioxide at elevated temperatures (optimally 300–400 °C) and pressures (perhaps 3 MPa [1]) in the presence of a nickel catalyst.

  3. Water–gas shift reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water–gas_shift_reaction

    This is sometimes called the reverse water–gas shift reaction. [20] Water gas is defined as a fuel gas consisting mainly of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H 2). The term 'shift' in water–gas shift means changing the water gas composition (CO:H 2) ratio. The ratio can be increased by adding CO 2 or reduced by adding steam to the reactor.

    3), and carbon dioxide (CO 2) in order to maintain pH in the blood and duodenum, among other tissues, to support proper metabolic function. [1] Catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase, carbon dioxide (CO 2) reacts with water (H 2 O) to form carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3), which in turn rapidly dissociates to form a bicarbonate ion (HCO −

  5. Bosch reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosch_reaction

    The Bosch reaction is a catalytic chemical reaction between carbon dioxide (CO 2) and hydrogen (H 2) that produces elemental carbon (C,graphite), water, and a 10% return of invested heat. CO 2 is usually reduced by H 2 to carbon in presence of a catalyst (e.g. iron (Fe)) and requires a temperature level of 530–730 °C (986–1,346 °F).

  6. Electrolysis of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolysis_of_water

    In the case of water electrolysis, Gibbs free energy represents the minimum work necessary for the reaction to proceed, and the reaction enthalpy is the amount of energy (both work and heat) that has to be provided so the reaction products are at the same temperature as the reactant (i.e. standard temperature for the values given above ...

  7. Boudouard reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boudouard_reaction

    The Boudouard reaction, named after Octave Leopold Boudouard, is the redox reaction of a chemical equilibrium mixture of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide at a given temperature. It is the disproportionation of carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide and graphite or its reverse: [ 1 ]

  8. Solid oxide electrolyzer cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_oxide_electrolyzer_cell

    The net cell reaction yields hydrogen and oxygen gases. The reactions for one mole of water are shown below, with oxidation of oxide ions occurring at the anode and reduction of water occurring at the cathode. Anode: 2 O 2− → O 2 + 4 e −. Cathode: H 2 O + 2 e − → H 2 + O 2−. Net Reaction: 2 H 2 O → 2 H 2 + O 2

  9. Oceanic carbon cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oceanic_carbon_cycle

    The air-sea CO 2 flux induced by a marine biological community can be determined by the rain ratio - the proportion of carbon from calcium carbonate compared to that from organic carbon in particulate matter sinking to the ocean floor, (PIC/POC). [19] The carbonate pump acts as a negative feedback on CO 2 taken into the ocean by the solubility ...
