Doping and pretreatment optimized the adsorption of *OCHO on bismuth for the electrocatalytic reduction of CO₂to formate

Abstract

Electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 to formate is considered as a promising method to achieve carbon neutrality, and heteroatom introduction is an effective strategy to improve the catalytic activity and selectivity...

“…[1][2][3][4] The renewable electricity-driven electrocatalytic CO 2 RR presents an attractive route for sustainable production of valuable chemicals and fuels to enable carbon neutrality. [5][6][7][8][9][10][11] To practically implement this technology on a large scale, the prerequisite is the development of highly active, selective, and durable CO 2 RR electrocatalysts to achieve energy-efficient and high-rate conversion of CO 2 toward the desired products. [12][13][14] Over the past few decades, although impressive progress has been achieved in developing CO 2 RR electrocatalysts with improved performances, the research activities are still centered on the aqueous-phase CO 2 RR in H-type cells for fundamental investigations.…”
