Direct Electrosynthesis of Urea from Carbon Dioxide and Nitric Oxide
Abstract
Electrochemical synthesis of urea provides a sustainable strategy that can be easily incorporated into currently distributed renewable energy systems. The main challenge that hindered the advancement of this technique lies in developing advanced electrocatalytic processes to utilize abundant and low-cost inorganic carbon and nitrogen sources for highly productive urea generation. Herein, we report an electrocatalytic reaction that converts carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and nitric oxide (NO) into urea, with water as the hydrogen source, under ambient conditions. The yield rate and Faradaic efficiency of urea reach 15.13 mmol g –1 h –1 and 11.26% at a current density of 40 mA cm –2 under optimized conditions. The critical intermediates of *CO and *NH 2 for urea generation are obtained via the co-reduction of CO 2 and NO and then continuously interconnect to form the C–N bond. A preliminary techno-economic study is performed to discuss the practical application potential of this strategy for urea production.

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.
