“…Electrochemistry (EC) has been extensively utilized in the quest for CO 2 recycling and the production of value-added products, offering promising solutions for both energy and environmental challenges. − Cu-based electrocatalysts have demonstrated superiority over other metal catalysts by exhibiting high C–C coupling efficiency, leading to the production of C 2+ (oxygenated) hydrocarbons. − They also offer a higher likelihood of yielding desired products among a range of options. In contrast, catalysts based on other metals generally offer fewer options for reduction products.…”

The electrodeposition of Cu and Zn onto bare Cu and CuZn mesh supports offers a straightforward method for fabricating novel electrodes for electrochemical CO 2 reduction (EC CO 2 R). This study evaluates the performance of these modified electrodes by assessing their Faradaic efficiency (FE) under various conditions including different electrolytes, concentrations, applied potentials, recycling effects, and Nafion treatment. The reduction products were categorized into several groups: C 1 gaseous products (CO and CH 4 ), C 2 gaseous products (C 2 H 4 and C 2 H 6 ), C 3,4 hydrocarbons, major C 1 /C 2 /C 3 liquid products (formate, ethanol, and propanol), and minor C 1 /C 2 /C 3 liquid products (methanol, acetate, acetaldehyde, and isopropanol). We evaluated their dynamic FE variations under various experimental conditions. The production of C 2+ hydrocarbons through EC CO 2 R was found to be analogous to conventional Fischer−Tropsch synthesis, highlighting the pivotal roles of *CO and *CH x intermediates. This study's insights into the dynamic variations of C 1 , C 2 , and C 3+ product chemistry aid in the further development of Zn and Cu-based electrocatalysts.
