The system utilizes homogeneous electrocatalysis, allowing CO2 conversion into carbon monoxide, a key industrial material.

The new catalyst system achieved high current densities and remained stable for over 100 hours without decay.

This advancement opens possibilities for testing and integrating high-performance homogeneous electrocatalysts in electrochemical processes

Researchers are constantly pushing the limits of technology by breaking new ground in CO2 conversion. Their goal is to turn the harmful greenhouse gas into a valuable resource.

Research groups around the world are developing technologies to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) into raw materials for industrial applications. Most experiments under industrially relevant conditions have been carried out with heterogeneous electrocatalysts, i.e. catalysts that are in a different chemical phase to the reacting substances.
