“…This reaction product distribution is very sensitive to various parameters such as applied potential, buffer strength and local pH, local CO 2 concentration, CO 2 pressure and the surface crystal structure of the electrode [5,8,[14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. Elsewhere, on several transition metal electrodes (Ni, Pd, Pt…) carbon monoxide was mainly formed [25][26][27][28][29][30][31]. Recently, there have been many extensive studies on the electro-reduction of CO 2 in different (protic or aprotic) solvents in which the solubility of the reactant varied.…”
