Energy‐Efficient, Sustainable Cascade Glucose Electrooxidation into Glucaric Acid

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a tandem system that efficiently converts glucose into glucaric acid while generating renewable electricity. By decoupling the oxidation process into two cascaded steps, the system achieves an overall 90% Faradaic efficiency and 80% conversion efficiency at ∼0.6 VRHE, significantly reducing energy consumption compared to traditional
