Abstract

Electrochemical bicarbonate reduction is a promising technology in carbon capture and conversion schemes. In this issue of Joule, Zhu et al. demonstrated an integrated strategy to facilitate bicarbonate-to-CO conversion by using a CoPc electrocatalyst that has strong CO2 adsorption and a cross-flow design to facilitate mass transfer, and achieved ∼95% Faradaic efficiency at 300 mA/cm2.
