FlowPhotoChem publication from University of Szeged researchers

2023-09-08T14:27:42+01:00January 10th, 2022|Project News, Publication, University News|

'Anode Catalysts in CO2 Electrolysis: Challenges and Untapped Opportunities' was published in ACS Catalysis by the researchers Ádám Vass, Attila Kormányos, Zsófia Kószó, Balázs Endrődi, and Csaba Janáky (ACS Catalysis 0, 12, DOI: 10.1021/acscatal.1c04978) on January 3rd, 2022. Congratulations to the entire team of researchers and our partners at the University of Szeged! Abstract: The field of electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction has developed rapidly during recent years. At the same time, the role of the anodic half-reaction has received considerably less attention. In this Perspective, we scrutinize the reports on the best-performing CO2 electrolyzer cells from the past 5 years, to shed light on [...]
