Cation-regulated nitrate electroreduction to ammonia on Fe-deposited carbon rod electrodes with correction of spontaneous contribution

Xinpeng Li, Bicheng Zhang, Zhengcheng Liu, Jiahui Hao, Wei Liu, Qikun Zhang

Cation-specific open-circuit controls reveal spontaneous nitrate reduction on Fe/CR and show that Mg 2+ enhanced NO 3 RR remains pronounced after correcting the apparent NH 3 yield.
