Journal ArticleDOI
Electrochemical conversion of CO2 to useful chemicals: current status, remaining challenges, and future opportunities
Huei Ru Molly Jhong,Huei Ru Molly Jhong,Sichao Ma,Sichao Ma,Paul J. A. Kenis,Paul J. A. Kenis +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss current status and opportunities for catalyst design, electrolyte choice, and electrode structure, as well as a review of catalysts, electrolytes, and electrodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electroreduction of carbon dioxide to hydrocarbons using bimetallic Cu-Pd catalysts with different mixing patterns
Sichao Ma,Masaaki Sadakiyo,Minako Heima,Raymond Luo,Richard T. Haasch,Jake I. Gold,Miho Yamauchi,Paul J. A. Kenis,Paul J. A. Kenis +8 more
TL;DR: Based on surface valence band spectra, geometric effects rather than electronic effects seem to be key in determining the selectivity of bimetallic Cu-Pd catalysts, which implies that selectivities to different products can be tuned by geometric arrangements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanoporous Copper–Silver Alloys by Additive-Controlled Electrodeposition for the Selective Electroreduction of CO2 to Ethylene and Ethanol
Thao T. H. Hoang,Thao T. H. Hoang,Sumit Verma,Sumit Verma,Sichao Ma,Sichao Ma,Timothy T. Fister,Janis Timoshenko,Anatoly I. Frenkel,Paul J. A. Kenis,Paul J. A. Kenis,Andrew A. Gewirth,Andrew A. Gewirth +12 more
TL;DR: In situ Raman and electroanalysis studies suggest the origin of the high selectivity toward C2 products to be a combined effect of the enhanced stabilization of the Cu2O overlayer and the optimal availability of the CO intermediate due to the Ag incorporated in the alloy.
Journal ArticleDOI
A metal-free electrocatalyst for carbon dioxide reduction to multi-carbon hydrocarbons and oxygenates
Jingjie Wu,Sichao Ma,Jing Sun,Jake I. Gold,Chandra Sekhar Tiwary,Byoungsu Kim,Byoungsu Kim,Lingyang Zhu,Nitin Chopra,Ihab N. Odeh,Robert Vajtai,Aaron Z. Yu,Raymond Luo,Jun Lou,Guqiao Ding,Paul J. A. Kenis,Paul J. A. Kenis,Pulickel M. Ajayan +17 more
TL;DR: It is reported that nanometre-size N-doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs) catalyse the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide into multi-carbon hydrocarbons and oxygenates at high Faradaic efficiencies, high current densities and low overpotentials.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Gross-Margin Model for Defining Technoeconomic Benchmarks in the Electroreduction of CO2
Sumit Verma,Sumit Verma,Byoungsu Kim,Byoungsu Kim,Huei Ru Molly Jhong,Huei Ru Molly Jhong,Sichao Ma,Sichao Ma,Paul J. A. Kenis,Paul J. A. Kenis +9 more
TL;DR: A gross-margin model to evaluate the technoeconomic feasibility of producing different C1 -C2 chemicals through the electroreduction of CO2 indicates that CO and HCOOH are the most economically viable products.
