Unveiling the Potential of Metal and Non‐Metal Modified Porous Carbon for the Electrochemical Reduction of CO2

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Earth‐abundant metal‐ and non‐metal‐modified porous carbons offer a highly tunable platform for electrochemical CO2 reduction. This review shows how electronic interactions, active‐site coordination, pore architecture, and cooperative catalytic effects jointly govern intermediate stabilization, product selectivity, and device‐relevant CO2RR performance.

Anode Materials Requirements for Potassium Ion Batteries: Challenges and Future Possibilities

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This work identifies a critical scale‐up gap between laboratory battery research and industrial targets, driven by low active‐mass loadings and the omission of full‐cell metrics. We outline concrete strategies to bridge this divide, shifting focus toward high‐loading electrodes (> 3 mg cm−2) to ensure practical commercial viability of potassium ion ...
