Abstract

Renewable electricity must be utilized to usefully suppress the atmospheric CO₂ concentration and slow the progression of global warming. We have thus proposed a new concept involving CO₂-free electric power circulation systems via highly selective electrochemical reactions of alcohol/carboxylic acid redox couples. Design concepts for nanocatalysts able to catalyze highly selective electrochemical reactions are provided from both experimental and quantum mechanical perspectives.
