Abstract

Electrochemical reduction of CO2 with renewable electricity has attracted much attention for producing fuels and value-added chemicals while reducing carbon emissions. Carbon-based nanomaterials are of particular interest due to their earth abundance and low cost. In this chapter, the latest progress and research status of four types of nanomaterials in electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR) have been discussed in detail, including metal-free carbon-based, atomically dispersed carbon-based, metal nanoparticles encapsulated carbon-based, and metal nanoparticles supported carbon-based nanomaterials. Finally, the challenges and opportunities faced by carbon-based nanomaterials in electrochemical CO2RR have been proposed, as well as possible solutions in the future.
