Electrocatalytic nitrite (NO) reduction to ammonia (NH) can not only synthesize value-added NH, but also remove NO pollutants from the environment. However, the low efficiency of NO-to-NH conversion hinders its applications. Here, Ni nanoparticle-decorated juncus-derived biomass carbon prepared at 800 °C (Ni@JBC-800) serves as an efficient catalyst for NH synthesis by selective electroreduction of NO. This catalyst shows a remarkable NH yield of 4117.3 μg h mg and a large faradaic efficiency of 83.4% in an alkaline electrolyte. The catalytic mechanism is further investigated by theoretical calculations.
