Application of MOF-derived materials as electrocatalysts for CO2 conversion

Abstract

Electrochemical reduction of CO2 into fuel/high-value chemicals using electricity generated from renewable energy is one of the most promising ways to achieve carbon neutrality. Recently, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs)-derived materials, originating from the MOF architecture, show competitive performance as electrocatalysts in CO2 reduction. This review systematically summarizes several synthesis strategies to fabricate diverse and functional MOF-derived materials including pyrolysis, precursor regulation, post-modification and other synthesis. Additionally, the application of MOF-derived materials in the ECO2RR is classified in detail according to the reduction products. Eventually, some challenges and prospects of the synthesis of MOF-derived electrocatalysts and their application in ECO2RR are presented.
