초록

메탄은 풍부하고 재생 가능한 탄화수소이지만, 온실가스로서 지구 온난화를 발생시킨다. 따라서 메탄을 유용한 화학물질이나 에너지원으로의 변환이 필요하다. 메탄올은 메탄의 부분 산화 반응을 통해 합성할 수 있는 간단하고 풍부한화학물질이다. 메탄올은 화학 공급 원료나 수송 연료로 사용될 뿐만 아니라, 저온 연료 전지의 연료로도 적합하다. 그러나 메탄올의 전기화학 산화는 복잡하고 다단계의 반응이므로, 이 반응을 이해하고 최적화하기 위해서는 새로운 전기화학촉매와 반응 메커니즘의 연구가 필요하다. 본 총설에서는 메탄올 산화 반응 메커니즘 및 최근 연구 동향과 향후 연구 방향을 고찰하였다.

Methane is an abundant and renewable hydrocarbon, but it causes global warming as a greenhouse gas. Therefore, methods to convert methane into useful chemicals or energy sources are needed. Methanol is a simple and abundant chemical that can be synthesized by the partial oxidation of methane. Methanol can be used as a chemical feedstock or a transportation fuel, as well as a fuel for low-temperature fuel cells. However, the electrochemical oxidation of methanol is a complex and multi-step reaction. To understand and optimize this reaction, new electrocatalysts and reaction mechanisms are required. This review discusses the methanol oxidation reaction mechanism, recent research trends, and future research directions.
