Recently,the Carbon-based Resource Catalytic Transformation Team fromGXUSchool of Chemistry and Chemical Engineeringhas made a breakthroughprogressin theresearch ofcarbon dioxide electroreduction.The research finding, titled“Atmosphere Induces Tunable Oxygen Vacancies to Stabilize Single-Atom Copper in Ceria for Robust Electrocatalytic CO₂Reduction to CH₄”,was published inthe internationally renowned academic journal in the field of chemistry,Angewandte Chemie International Edition(German Applied Chemistry). The co-first authors of the paper are Huang Fang, a 2022Masterstudent,and Chen Xiangyu, a 2021 Masterstudent from the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. The corresponding authors are Professor Xu Jing and Associate Professor He Huibing, with Guangxi University as the first correspondingunit. Thisresearchwassupported bytheprojects such as China National Natural Science Foundation, Guangxi Natural Science Foundation, Guangxi Science and Technology Base andTalentProject, etc.

The Carbon-based Resource Catalytic Transformation Team from School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering has beendevotingto the design, preparation, performance, and application research of carbon-based resource catalytictransformationmaterials fora long time. In recent years, they have published more than 30 SCIindexedpapers in the research field of CO₂catalytictransformation.
