Abstract Non‐noble transition metal (TM)‐based compounds have recently become a focal point of extensive research interest as electrocatalysts for the two electron oxygen reduction (2e − ORR) process. To efficiently drive this reaction, these TM‐based must bear unique physiochemical properties, which are strongly dependent on their phase structures. Consequently, adopting engineering strategies toward structure has emerged cutting‐edge scientific pursuit, crucial achieving high activity, selectivity, and stability in electrocatalytic This comprehensive review addresses intricate field applied to non‐noble 2e ORR. First, connotation fundamental concepts related kinetics thermodynamics succinctly elucidated. Subsequently, focus shifts detailed discussion various approaches, including elemental doping, defect creation, heterostructure construction, coordination tuning, crystalline design, polymorphic transformation boost or revive ORR performance (selectivity, stability) catalysts, accompanied by an insightful exploration phase‐performance correlation. Finally, proposes fresh perspectives current challenges opportunities burgeoning field, together with several critical directions future development electrocatalysts.

On-site H2O2 electrosynthesis via two-electron oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is attracting great interest for water treatment. The use of carbon black-based gas-diffusion electrodes (GDEs) especially appealing, but their activity, selectivity and long-term stability must be improved. Here, a facile GDEs modification strategy using trace polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) allowed outstanding production, outperforming the conventional polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)-GDE (1874.8 vs 1087.4 mg L-1 at 360 min). superhydrophobicity conferred by PMHS endowed catalytic layer with high faradaic efficiencies (76.2%-89.7%) during operation 60 h. electrochemical tests confirmed activity PMHS-modified GDE. Moreover, efficient degradation several micropollutants electro-Fenton process demonstrated potential new An in-depth understanding roles functional groups provided from DFT calculations: −CH3 contribute to form superhydrophobic interface, whereas Si-H as-formed Si-O-C sites modulate coordination environment active centers.
