Abstract

Electrochemical reduction of NO offers us an attractive alternative to traditional selective catalytic reduction process for harmful NO removal and simultaneous NH3 production, but it requires efficient electrocatalyst to enable the NO reduction reaction with high selectivity. Here, we report on the development of Bi nanoparticles/carbon nanosheet composite (Bi@C) for highly effective NO reduction electrocatalysis toward selective NH3 formation. Such Bi@C catalyst attains an impressive NH3 yield of 1,592.5 μg·h−1·mgcat.−1 and a high Faradaic efficiency as high as 93% in 0.1 M Na2SO4 electrolyte. Additionally, it can be applied as efficient cathode materials for Zn–NO battery to reduce NO to NH3 with high electricity generation.

Graphical Abstract

Bismuth nanoparticles/carbon nanosheet composite behaves as a high-active and stable electrocatalystfor ambient NO reduction into NH3 with a yield of 1,592.5 μg·h−1·mgcat.−1 and a Faradaic efficiency ashigh as 93%.The Zn–NO battery with Bi@C cathode delivers a high power density of 2.35 mW·cm−1and an NH3 yield of 355.6 μg·h−1·mgcat.−1.
