Researchers develop efficient tandem catalyst to enhance nitrate electroreduction to ammonia

A research team has designed a tandem catalyst to improve the electroreduction of nitrate into ammonia. By coupling Cu single atom catalysts with adjacent Co3O4 nanosheets, the team successfully regulated the adsorption energy of intermediates in the nitrate electroreduction process, promoting the synthesis of ammonia. A research team has designed a tandem catalyst to improve the…
