Currently, more than 86% of global energy consumption is still mainly dependent on
traditional fossil fuels, which causes resource scarcity and even emission of high amounts of …

Copper has been recognized as the only heterogeneous catalyst leading to the formation of
various products of hydrocarbons and oxygenates, such as ethanol and ethylene, from the …

Burning of fossil fuels increases CO2 concentration in the atmosphere, resulting in a series
of climate-and environment-related concerns such as global warming, sea-level rise, and …

The catalytic transformation of CO2 into valuable fuels/chemicals is a promising and
economically profitable process because it offers an alternative toward fossil feedstocks and …

Transition-metal single-atom catalysts present extraordinary activity per metal atomic site,
but suffer from low metal-atom densities (typically less than 5 wt% or 1 at.%), which limits …

Electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR) is an efficient strategy to relieve
global environmental and energy issues by converting excess CO2 from the atmosphere to …

The continuously increasing CO2 released from human activities poses a great threat to
human survival by fluctuating global climate and disturbing carbon balance among the four …

Continuous consumption of fossil energy and excessive CO2 emission severely restrict
human society. Sustainable carbon cycle is a promising technology to simultaneously …

Isolated atoms featuring unique reactivity are at the heart of enzymatic and homogeneous
catalysts. In contrast, although the concept has long existed, single-atom heterogeneous …

Atomically dispersed metal catalysts have triggered great interest in the field of catalysis
owing to their unique features. Isolated single or few metal atoms can be anchored on …
