Carbon dioxide can be reduced into valuable products through electrochemical catalysis, but today’s methods are very inefficient. An ESA team combined biological catalysts with molecular catalysts to create a new iron-based catalyst that is small, tunable, efficient, and highly productive. https://ipo.lbl.gov/metal-ligand-exchange-coupling-for-electrochemical-co2-reduction/
