Background:

Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) is crucial for a carbon-neutral society.
Current CO2 reduction technologies face challenges with sluggish kinetics and low selectivity, hindering commercialization.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a highly efficient and selective catalyst for CO2 electroreduction.
To demonstrate the catalyst's performance in a gaseous CO2 electrolyzer.

Main Methods:

Fabrication of a low-crystalline trimetallic (AuCuIn) catalyst.
Performance evaluation in a half-cell setup and a gaseous CO2 electrolyzer.
Analysis of catalyst properties including crystallinity, composition, charge transfer, d-band center, and oxophilicity.

Main Results:

The AuCuIn catalyst exhibited high Faradaic efficiency (FE) for CO formation at low overpotentials.
Optimized catalyst demonstrated superior cell performance in a gaseous CO2 electrolyzer, outperforming existing technologies.
Catalyst properties like controlled crystallinity, composition, faster charge transfer, downshifted d-band center, and low oxophilicity contributed to high performance.

Conclusions:

The developed trimetallic catalyst shows significant potential for commercializing CO2 electrolyzers.
This advancement promotes the establishment of a greener society through efficient CO2 utilization.
