Selective Electrochemical NOx Reduction to N2 for Sustainable Ammonia Energy Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Selective electrochemical NOx reduction to N2 offers a promising route to mitigate combustion‐derived NOx emissions in ammonia energy systems. This Perspective links *NO‐mediated pathways, the key intermediate role of N2O, and low‐coverage limitations to the origins of limited N2 selectivity, establishing tandem catalysis and microenvironment ...
