Single-atom catalysts offer exceptional performance but face practical challenges due to complex synthesis and low efficiency caused by mass transfer resistance. In this study, based on a simple one-step pyrolysis method, we designed Cu single-atom catalyst with high active site exposure locally electron-deficient environment (HE Cu1-N4) achieve maximum utilization in electrocatalytic nitrate reduction (NO3RR). Using advanced characterization techniques, confirmed that its unique 3D structure enhances atom reduces (NO3-) Synchrotron radiation DFT calculations showed adjusting the coordination induces local effect atoms, increasing electrostatic attraction NO3-. HE Cu1-N4 achieved 100% NH3 selectivity across wide range of NO3- concentrations, an yield (5.09 mg h-1 mgcat-1) nearly 7-fold higher than conventional unmodified (Cu1-N2, 0.73 mgcat-1). Under pilot-scale conditions, demonstrated strong resistance interference excellent stability water systems. A modification method enhanced single atoms catalysts, significantly improving catalytic activity material. Moreover, straightforward strategy holds promise for large-scale production paving way engineering applications.

Abstract Energy electrocatalytic reactions such as hydrogen evolution reaction, oxygen reduction nitrogen carbon etc., are important to solve the current energy shortage and increasing environmental problems. Developing novel efficient catalyts for these has become an essential urgent issue. Catalysts incorporating bridge‐oxygen bond have received attention due their superior conductivity stability, which favorable optimizing reaction mechanism improving kinetics. This paper provides a comprehensive review encompassing concept of bond, means characterization, activity in electrocatalysis effect on catalytic performance. Through this review, it is expected furnish valuable reference rational design catalysts featuring structure across diverse reactions.

Abstract The electrocatalytic conversion of nitrate to ammonia in neutral media offers profound potential for sustainable nitrogen management, albeit it has been critically impeded by persistent hurdles such as the sluggish kinetics and competitive adsorption H2O molecules. Herein, we report reconstruction copper foam engineer asymmetric Cu0/Cu+ interfaces condition with ultralow concentration. Employing microstructural characterizations complemented kinetic isotope effect (KIE) analyses, uncover that Cu2O/Cu electrocatalyst fosters formation rectifying interfaces, thereby facilitating accelerating hydrogenation H-ON environments. Notably, under conditions concentration (14 ppm NO3−-N), demonstrates a remarkable 100% NO3− NH3 within 15 minutes, removal ratio 99.9% an production rate 0.39 mmol/h/cm2, effectively diminishing levels adhere national drinking water standards.
