Abstract

In view of the climate changes caused by the continuously rising levels of atmospheric CO 2 , advanced technologies associated with CO 2 conversion are highly desirable. In recent decades, electrochemical reduction of CO 2 has been extensively studied since it can reduce CO 2 to value‐added chemicals and fuels. Considering the sluggish reaction kinetics of the CO 2 molecule, efficient and robust electrocatalysts are required to promote this conversion reaction. Here, recent progress and opportunities in inorganic heterogeneous electrocatalysts for CO 2 reduction are discussed, from the viewpoint of both experimental and computational aspects. Based on elemental composition, the inorganic catalysts presented here are classified into four groups: metals, transition‐metal oxides, transition‐metal chalcogenides, and carbon‐based materials. However, despite encouraging accomplishments made in this area, substantial advances in CO 2 electrolysis are still needed to meet the criteria for practical applications. Therefore, in the last part, several promising strategies, including surface engineering, chemical modification, nanostructured catalysts, and composite materials, are proposed to facilitate the future development of CO 2 electroreduction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
