Ligand and temperature effects of porous palladium nanoparticle ensembles with grain boundaries for highly efficient electrocatalytic CO2 reduction

Nanostructured cobalt/copper catalysts for efficient electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction

“…Minor alterations in the synthetic conditions of metal-based catalysts are known to result in dramatic changes to their morphology and electronic properties. [37][38][39][40] Consequently, this allows for synthetic control over catalytic efficiency for CO 2 reduction. In this work, each synthetic step was optimized to maximize CO 2 RR over HER by investigating how the incorporation of copper on the cobalt nanostructured surface would affect: (i) the morphology of the surface; (ii) the catalytic activity towards the CO 2 RR and faradaic efficiencies; and (iii) the product selectivity.…”

Cu-Loaded NaNbO3 Three-Dimensional Networks for CO2 Photoreduction to C2 Species

“…To address these issues, it is necessary to develop new technology for carbon dioxide capture, storage, and utilization to realize carbon neutrality. 1,2 Solar energy is one of the potential renewable energies that can satisfy the future energy needs. Artificial photosynthesis using solar energy can split water into H 2 gas and reduce CO 2 to produce green fuels, such as methane and methanol, as well as high-valued compounds, such as ethane and ethylene, thereby converting solar energy into chemical energy.…”

“…In the past centuries, with the development of human society, the increase in energy demand has led to the massive consumption of fossil fuels in the world, resulting in critical energy and environmental problems. To address these issues, it is necessary to develop new technology for carbon dioxide capture, storage, and utilization to realize carbon neutrality. , Solar energy is one of the potential renewable energies that can satisfy the future energy needs. Artificial photosynthesis using solar energy can split water into H 2 gas and reduce CO 2 to produce green fuels, such as methane and methanol, as well as high-valued compounds, such as ethane and ethylene, thereby converting solar energy into chemical energy. , In recent years, the use of CO 2 photoreduction to produce carbon-based energy and high-valued compounds has attracted extensive attention of researchers because it can generate renewable green energy and useful chemicals. , …”

Cu-nanocluster-loaded N-doped porous graphitic carbon for electrochemical CO2 reduction towards syngas generation

“…2 In particular, for aqueous solutions chosen as the catalytic medium, competition between the CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) inevitably occurs, possibly leading to the generation of syngas. 3 Besides offering a promising route for achieving net zero emissions of CO 2 , the electrochemical CO 2 RR to produce syngas is crucial for the further generation of various chemicals from syngas with desirable H 2 /CO ratios at an energy consumption level lower than that of the direct CO 2 RR. 4 Hence, it is necessary to develop an appealing strategy to controllably synthesize syngas with different molar ratios of H 2 to CO through the electrochemical CO 2 RR.…”
