- Abstract
Facing greenhouse effects and the rapid exhaustion of fossil fuel, CO2 electrochemical reduction presents a promising method of environmental protection and energy transformation. Low onset potential, large current density, high faradaic efficiency (FE), and long-time stability are required for industrial production, due to economic costs and energy consumption. This minireview showcases the recent progress in catalyst design and engineering technology in CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) on copper based-catalysts. We focus on strategies optimizing the performance of copper-based catalysts, such as single-atom catalysts, doping, surface modification, crystal facet engineering, etc., and reactor design including gas diffusion layer, membrane electrode assembly, etc., in enhancing target electroreduction products including methane, methanol, ethylene, and C2+ oxygenates. The determination of the correlation and the developed technology might be helpful for future applications in the industry.
