  • As part of the March Focus issue of Nature Chemical Engineering, we asked 13 leading researchers to spotlight a challenge or opportunity in reaction engineering that they believe holds particular promise for advancing this core area of chemical engineering research and practice.

  • Photoelectrochemical water splitting may be used to produce hydrogen using abundant solar energy. Here, the authors fabricate layered films of amorphous molybdenum sulphide on copper(I) oxide and demonstrate the catalytic activity and enhanced stability of these devices made from earth-abundant materials.

  • Atomic-scale simulations and microscopy experiments reveal copper surfaces restructure during CO2 electroreduction, driven by CO adsorption, forming active sites adjacent to defects that are crucial for catalyst activity and product selectivity.

  • Electrochemical CO2 reduction is a potential route to the sustainable production of valuable fuels and chemicals. In this joint experimental-theoretical work, the authors address the issue of the rate-limiting step on Gold and present insights from multi-scale simulations into the importance of the electric double layer on reaction kinetics and mass transport.

  • The electrochemical transformation of CO2 into liquid fuels is a major challenge. Now, Jaramillo, Hahn and co-workers present a Au/Cu catalyst highly active to C2+ alcohols at low overpotentials as a result of a tandem mechanism where CO2 is reduced to CO on Au and further reduced to C2+ alcohols on nearby Cu.

  • The roughness factor of an electrode has been generally used to increase total rates of production, though rarely as a means to improve selectivity. Now, Jaramillo, Hahn and co-workers direct the selectivity of CO reduction to multicarbon oxygenates at low overpotentials by increasing the roughness factor of nanostructured Cu electrodes.
