Approaches to Controlling Homogeneous Electrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide
The ever-increasing global fuel demand and environmental consequences of anthropogenic carbon emissions have motivated interest in catalytic reduction of carbon dioxide to liquid fuels. Over the past 45 years substantial research progress has been made in homogeneous electrocatalytic systems for the reduction of carbon dioxide. This chapter will present much of the significant research in this field, in the context of innovative strategies for controlling carbon dioxide electrocatalysis.
