Stable and Efficient Single-Atom Zn Catalyst for CO2 Reduction to CH4
Open accessAbstract
The development of highly active and durable catalysts for electrochemical reduction of CO 2 (ERC) to CH 4 in aqueous media is an efficient and environmentally friendly solution to address global problems in energy and sustainability. In this work, an electrocatalyst consisting of single Zn atoms supported on microporous N-doped carbon was designed to enable multielectron transfer for catalyzing ERC to CH 4 in 1 M KHCO 3 solution. This catalyst exhibits a high Faradaic efficiency (FE) of 85%, a partial current density of −31.8 mA cm –2 at a potential of −1.8 V versus saturated calomel electrode, and remarkable stability, with neither an obvious current drop nor large FE fluctuation observed during 35 h of ERC, indicating a far superior performance than that of dominant Cu-based catalysts for ERC to CH 4 . Theoretical calculations reveal that single Zn atoms largely block CO generation and instead facilitate the production of CH 4 .

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.
