Abstract

Improving the performance of cathodes for the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) will benefit from the discovery of new materials as well as the introduction of new paradigms for the development of integrated systems. This poster presents work on the synthesis and CO2 reduction activity of a novel quasi-2D Pd/Pt bimetallic ‘nanoclam’ catalyst synthesized on carbon cloth electrodes as well as the integration of these novel nanostructured cathodes with microbial communities. The integration of microbial communities with these nanostructured Pd/Pt catalysts has the potential to combine the best-of-both-worlds from electrochemical and biological systems to achieve a regenerative catalytic system with high-selectivity, high activity, and low overpotential.
