Nitrate (NO3-) is one of the most invasive groundwater pollutants from agricultural runoff, industrial wastewater discharges, and animal manures&lt;span style="font-size:10.8333px"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt; Catalytic NO3- reduction technologies are vital to managing the global N-cycle, which involves the interconversion of dinitrogen (N2) and nitrogen species such as NH3 and NO3-. The electrochemical NO3- reduction reaction (NO3RR) with renewable electricity offers a sustainable alternative to the energy-intensive Haber-Bosch process and a viable path for closing the disrupted N-cycle. In this presentation, I will discuss our recent progress on developing well-defined, atomically precise nanocrystals as electrocatalysts for NO3RR.
