| Abstract | Electrocatalytic processes can satisfy the growing demand for sustainable fuels and chemicals by enabling the use of renewably generated electricity in industrial chemical production. To that goal, the project explores fundamental aspects of electrocatalysis that can be deployed in electrochemical reactors (i.e., electrolyzers) to convert the waste product carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas, into valuable ethylene, a precursor for plastics production. Beyond CO2 emissions reduction, the elec |
