TL;DR: A non-precious metal-based catalyst for electrocatalytic oxygen reduction that imparts outstanding fuel cell performance using a Mn-Co spinel cathode that can deliver greater power, at high current densities, than a Pt cathode.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an approach for reducing CO2 emissions and alleviating the energy crisis through the reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2RR) to liquid fuels and valued chemicals.

TL;DR: In this article, a high performance CO2 electrolyzer making use of alkaline polymer electrolytes (APEs) was reported, with a highly conductive and stable APE, quaternary ammonia poly(N-methyl-piperidine-co-pterphenyl) (QAPPT), applied both as the membrane separator and the ionomer impregnating the gas-diffusion electrodes.

TL;DR: Powered by renewable electricity, the electrochemical conversion of CO2 to liquid fuels and valuable chemicals is a meaningful approach to enable carbon cycling and tackle environmental issues as mentioned in this paper. But, it is not suitable for indoor air quality.

TL;DR: A new reinforced APE membrane that can effectively disentangle the trade-off between the ionic conductivity and the mechanical robustness/dimensional stability of the membrane is reported.
