Abstract
A method of electrochemical reduction of COincludes the use of a catalyst of Cu/CuO particles including Cu/CuO interfaces. The catalyst may be included in an electrochemical cell for the conversion of COto value-added products. The electrochemical cell may include an anode, a cathode including the Cu/CuO particles including Cu/CuO interfaces, and an aqueous medium containing COor CO. The COor COis reduced by contacting the Cu/CuO particles with the aqueous medium while supplying electricity to the cell. The conversion of COby the electrochemical reduction thereof has higher Faradaic Efficiency due to the Cu/CuO interfaces in the Cu/CuO particles.
