Abstract
- The gradually increased concentration of carbon dioxide (CO<subscript>2</subscript>) in the atmosphere has been recognized as the primary culprit for the rise of the global mean temperature. In recent years, development of routes for highly efficient conversion of CO<subscript>2</subscript> has received much attention. This Review describes recent progress on the design and synthesis of solid-state catalysts for the electrochemical reduction of CO<subscript>2</subscript>. The significance of this catalytic conversion is presented, followed by the general parameters for CO<subscript>2</subscript> electroreduction and a summary of the reaction apparatus. We also discuss various types of solid catalysts based on their CO<subscript>2</subscript> conversion mechanisms. We summarize the crucial factors (particle size, surface structure, composition, etc.) determining the performance for electroreduction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
