Electrocatalytic CO Reduction to Produce Long‐chain Products Through Fischer‐Tropsch Pathway by Bo Cao, Fu‐Zhi Li, Songbai Han, Qiang Xu, Jun Gu

“…Unlike thermocatalytic FTS, where adsorbed H atoms form via H2 dissociation, in this electrocatalytic version, the H atoms are generated through the Volmer reaction from water. Subsequently, the chemisorbed and activated CO species are hydrogenated, forming CHx intermediates that propagate into long‐chain products.…”
