摘要：

The conventional Haber-Bosch process for industrial ammonia production from N2 and H2 is not only energy-intensive but also releases a large amount of CO2. The electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) is regarded as a sustainable and environmentally-benign alternative approach for NH3 production under ambient conditions. In this communication, it is reported that Fe2O3 nanorods act as an efficient electrocatalyst for the NRR. In 0.1 M Na2SO4, it attains a Faradic efficiency of 0.94% and NH3 yield of 15.9 mgh 1mg 1 cat. at 0.8 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode. Furthermore, this catalyst also shows good stability during electrolysis and recycling tests.
