ABSTRACT
Bi2O3 catalyst with Bi-O bond crystal structure has more active sites, which shows better CO2 catalytic performance than pure Bi catalysts in many catalytic reactions. How to strengthen the Bi-O bond in Bi2O3 to obtain higher selectivity and catalytic activity is a problem worthy of consideration. Here, we develop a N2 pre-reduced spherical Bi2O3/ATO catalyst that has a high formate Faradaic efficiency of 92.7%, which is superior to the existing tin oxide catalyst. Detailed electrocatalytic analysis shows that N2 pre-reduction and spherical structure are helpful for Sn to stabilize the oxidation state of Bi, thus retaining part of the Bi-O structure. The existence of the Bi-O structure can reduce the energy barrier of the CO2 production *OCHO reaction and promote the reaction rate of the CO2-*OCHO-HCOOH path, thus promoting the formation of formate.
