Abstract
Critical to the feasibility of electrochemical reduction of waste NO<sub>x</sub>(NO<sub>x</sub>RR), as a sustainable pathway and to close the NO<sub>x</sub>cycle for the emerging NH<sub>3</sub>economy, is the requirement of inexpensive, scalable and selective catalysts that can generate NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>with high yield, as indicated by our economic modelling.
