How a Record-Breaking Copper Catalyst Converts CO2 Into Liquid Fuels

sarah JonasResearch Results

Since the 1970s, scientists have known that copper has a special ability to transform carbon dioxide into valuable chemicals and fuels. But for many years, scientists have struggled to understand how this common metal works as an electrocatalyst, a mechanism that uses energy from electrons to chemically transform molecules into different products.
