Concerns about fossil fuel depletion and rising carbon emissions have brought about an urgent demand for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and utilisation technologies. Facilitated by the mechanism-driven catalyst development and engineering innovation, this project aims to deliver a durable and cost-effective approach to electrochemical transformation of CO2 into the valuable products. The proposed automatic liquid-flow reactor system is expected to enable an energy efficient and practical viable CO2 reduction in benign aqueous electrolytes. The resulting innovations will not only reduce the environmental impact of atmospheric CO2 but also generate highly concentrated industrial feedstocks for the sustainable production of commodity chemicals.
