Synergistic effects at the interface of core-shell Cu₃P@CoO heterojunctions for enhanced nitrate reduction to ammonia

Key Points

• The aim is to explore the synergistic effects of Cu₃P@CoO heterojunctions for enhancing nitrate reduction to ammonia.
• Used a core-shell heterojunction design with Cu₃P@CoO
• Conducted electrocatalytic tests for nitrate reduction
• Analyzed ammonia production during the process
• Demonstrated increased efficiency in converting nitrate to ammonia
• Achieved significant removal of nitrate from water
• Showed that the heterojunction structure enhances catalytic performance
