There is an urgent need for the development of high performance electrocatalysts for the CO reduction reaction (CORR) to address environmental issues such as global warming and achieve carbon neutral energy systems. In recent years, Cu-based electrocatalysts have attracted significant attention in this regard. The present review introduces fundamental aspects of the electrocatalytic CORR process together with a systematic examination of recent developments in Cu-based electrocatalysts for the electroreduction of CO to various high-value multicarbon products. Current challenges and future trends in the development of advanced Cu-based CORR electrocatalysts providing high activity and selectivity are also discussed.
当前，开发用于二氧化碳还原反应（CORR）的高性能电催化剂以应对全球变暖等环境问题并实现碳中性能源系统迫在眉睫。近年来，铜基电催化剂在这方面引起了广泛关注。本综述介绍了电催化 CORR 过程的基本方面，并系统地考察了近年来在电还原 CO 为各种高附加值多碳产品方面铜基电催化剂的最新进展。还讨论了开发提供高活性和选择性的先进铜基 CORR 电催化剂所面临的当前挑战和未来趋势。
