摘要

Global warming, environmental pollution, and climate change are critical challenges that demand immediate action through sustainable carbon capture and carbon utilization to mitigate their impacts. In this study, we synthesized a bismuth (Bi)-based metal–organic framework catalyst (CAU-17) with tunable morphology to investigate the impact of structural configuration on its electrocatalytic performance for the conversion of CO2 to formic acid. The mixed hexagonal rod-like/plate-like structures of CAU-17 (M-CAU-17) expose abundant electrochemically active sites, which significantly enhances the efficiency of CO2 conversion. At a potential of − 0.9 V (versus RHE), M-CAU-17 achieved a maximum Faradaic efficiency (FEmax%) of about 80% for formic acid production, accompanied by a total current density of about 3.7 mA cm−2. Furthermore, the CO2 electrolysis performance of M-CAU-17 exhibited exceptional stability over an extended period of 32 h at − 0.9 V (vs. RHE). This prolonged stability highlights the practical applicability of M-CAU-17 as a robust catalyst for sustained CO2 reduction. These results underscore the significant potential of M-CAU-17 in selectively and efficiently producing formic acid. Overall, the study not only establishes the effectiveness of the catalyst but also offers a promising solution for sustainable carbon utilization and addressing environmental challenges.
