“…To date, the highest Faradaic efficiency (FE) for yielding CH 4 , C 2 H 4 , and C 2+ products based on MOF electrocatalysts reaches >80%, ,, >50%, ,, and 80%, respectively (Figure and Table ). Previous reports revealed that the electrocatalysts with Au, , Ag, Co, − or Ni − active sites tend to generate CO as the main product, and those with In , or Sn , result in formate. Since the copper center has a negative adsorption energy for an essential intermediate *CO and a positive adsorption energy for *H, , Cu-based catalysts show an enormous advantage in electrochemical reduction of CO 2 to the high value-added products, such as hydrocarbons and carbon oxygenates ( i .…”
