Sequential co-reduction of nitrate and carbon dioxide enables selective urea electrosynthesis

Abstract Despite the recent achievements in urea electrosynthesis from co-reduction of nitrogen wastes (such as NO3 −) and CO2, the product selectivity remains fairly mediocre due to the competing nature of the two parallel reduction reactions. Here we report a catalyst design that affords high sele...
