The electrocatalytic nitrate reduction reaction(NO3RR)powered by renewable energy offers a promising approach for simultaneously reutilization of nitrate and synthesizing high-value products.Nevertheless,theoretical understanding of reaction mechanism was relative illusive,which is indispensable to ration-ally design of efficient catalysts.Besides,tuning the reaction microenvironment along with the scale-up device development is essential to promote the industrial deployment of electrocatalytic nitrate conver-sion,while relative research was overlooked.In this regard,recent advances in ammonia synthesis are firstly summarized,including the identification of active sites,exploration of the underlying reaction mechanisms,electrolyzer design and technical-economic analysis.Furthermore,electrocatalytic C-N coupling based on NO3RR to produce higher-value products such as urea and amino acids are also reviewed,to extend the application potential and economic feasibility.Finally,we highlight the existing challenges and the demand of future research for NO3RR.This review anticipates to provide insights into synthesis of high-value products via NO3RR,bridging the gap from laboratory research to industrial fabrication.
