Clea Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Hi all,I want to reduce carbon dioxide into formic acid via electrolysis with a tin or carbon rotating cathodeI plan to use glycerol carbon dioxide solution as my catholyte.But i looked online and found no-one uses glycerol, but methanol instead.Glycerol is a better solvent compared to methanol and it is also less toxic. So why don't we use glycerol?Is there something I'm not aware of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
