Abstract

Abstract Environmentally friendly electrochemical reduction of contaminated nitrate to ammonia (NO 3 − RR) is a promising solution for large quantity ammonia (NH 3 ) production, which, however, is a complex multi‐reaction process involving coordination between different reaction intermediates of nitrate reduction and water decomposition‐provided active hydrogen (H ads ) species. Here, a dual‐site catalyst of [W‐O] group‐doped CoP nanosheets (0.6W‐O‐CoP@NF) has been designed to synergistically catalyze the NO 3 − RR and water decomposition, especially the reactions between the intermediates of NO 3 − RR and water decomposition‐provided H ads species. This catalytic NO 3 − RR exhibits an extremely high NH 3…
