Over the past five years, substantial progress has been made in electrochemical nitrate reduction, particularly in achieving high Faraday efficiency and current density for ammonia production. This ...

Engineers have developed a high-performance nanowire catalyst that pulls ammonia and solid ammonia (fertilizer) from nitrate, a common contaminant in industrial wastewater and polluted groundwater. A ...

Catalyst breakthrough: Chinese scientists used a dual-atom catalyst to convert nitrate in wastewater into ammonia with nearly triple the efficiency of similar methods. Environmental potential: The ...
