Electrochemical Reduction of CO: A Review of Cobalt Based Catalysts for Carbon Dioxide Conversion to Fuels.

Electrochemical CO reduction reaction (CORR) provides a promising approach to curbing harmful emissions contributing to global warming. However, several challenges hinder the commercialization of this technology, including high overpotentials, electrode instability, and low Faradic efficiencies of desirable products. Several materials have been developed to overcome these challenges.
