RESUMO

Electrochemical nitrate reduction reaction (NitRR) uses nitrate from wastewater, offering a hopeful solution for environmental issues and ammonia production. Yet, varying nitrate levels in real wastewater greatly affect NitRR, slowing down its multi-step process. Herein, a multi-strategy approach was explored through the design of ordered mesoporous intermetallic AuCu3 nanocorals with ultrathin Au skin (meso-i-AuCu3@ultra-Au) as an efficient and concentration-versatile catalyst for NitRR. The highly penetrated structure, coupled with the compressive stress exerted on the skin layer, not only facilitates rapid electron/mass transfer, but also effectively modulates the surface electronic structure, addressing the concentration-dependent challenges encountered in practical NitRR process. As expected, the novel catalyst demonstrates outstanding NitRR activities and Faradaic efficiencies exceeding 95% across a real and widespread concentration range (10-2000 mM). Notably, its performance at each concentration matched or exceeded that of the best-known catalyst designed for that concentration. Multiple operando spectroscopies unveiled the catalyst concurrently optimized the adsorption behavior of different intermediates (adsorbed *NOx and *H) while expediting the hydrogenation steps, leading to an efficient overall reduction process. Moreover, the catalyst also displays promising potential for use in ammonia production at industrial-relevant current densities and in conceptual zinc-nitrate batteries, serving trifunctional nitrate conversion, ammonia synthesis and power supply.

RESUMO

Exploring non-precious metal-based electrocatalysts is still challenging in 21st century. In this work, a series of hexagonal bipyramidal Ce-based PBA materials as precursors with different Fe/Co metal ratios, namely as CeFex Co1-x -PBA, are successfully constructed via co-precipitation method and converted into corresponding metal oxides (denoted as Fex Co1-x CeOy ) via thermal treatment. Then, they as electrocatalysts realize highly efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Especially, as-synthesized Fe0.7 Co0.3 CeOy electrocatalyst shows very low overpotentials of 320 mV at the current density of 10 mA cm-2 and the Tafel slop of 98.4 mV dec-1 in 1 M KOH with remarkable durability for 24 h, which was due to the synergistic effect of multi-metal FeCoCe centers. Furthermore, a two-electrode cell of Fe0.7 Co0.3 CeOy /NF||Pt/C/NF realizes outstanding overall water splitting with a voltage of only 1.71 V at 10 mA cm-2 and remarkable long-term durability, that is even superior to benchmark IrO2 /NF||Pt/C/NF counterpart.
