Single atom Cu-N-C catalysts for the electro-reduction of CO2 to CO assessed by rotating ring-disc electrode

The electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction(CO2RR)to controllable chemicals is considered as a promis-ing pathway to store intermittent renewable energy.Herein,a set of catalysts based on copper-nitrogen-doped carbon xerogel(Cu-N-C)are successfully developed varying the copper amount and the nature of the copper precursor,for the efficient CO2RR.The electrocatalytic performance of Cu-N-C materials is assessed by a rotating ring-disc electrode(RRDE),technique still rarely explored for CO2RR.For compar-ison,products are also characterized by online gas chromatography in a H-cell.The as-synthesized Cu-N-C catalysts are found to be active and highly CO selective at low overpotentials(from-0.6 to-0.8 V vs.RHE)in 0.1 M KHCO3,while H2 from the competitive water reduction appears at larger overpotentials(-0.9 V vs.RHE).The optimum copper acetate-derived catalyst containing Cu-N4 moieties exhibits a CO2-to-CO turnover frequency of 997 h-1 at-0.9 V vs.RHE with a H2/CO ratio of 1.8.These results demonstrate that RRDE configuration can be used as a feasible approach for identifying electrolysis prod-ucts from CO2RR.
