Electrocatalysis offers a route to improving the treatment of wastewater, yet the need for supporting electrolytes complicates the purification of products. Here a cell is designed based on a porous solid electrolyte layer with a cation shuttling strategy that allows direct conversion of nitrate-containing wastewater into NH3(g) and purified water.
