Nitrate widely exists in industrial wastewater and polluted groundwater as an environmental pollutant, resulting severe risks. The nitrate-to-ammonia electrochemical reduction reaction (NO3RR) is recognized the most compelling solution for reducing pollutants (NO) into value-added product ammonia (NH3) due to compatibility with renewable energy. In recent years, copper-based electrocatalysts have emerged one of promising methods NO3RR owing their relatively high catalytic activity cost-effectiveness, also minimizing impact. From this perspective, we summarize function catalysts NO3RR. We provide overview current achievements different Furthermore, perspective raises future challenges designing highly effective long-term stable industrial-scale applications well clarifying pathways by theoretical experimental characterization tools.
