volts to –0.5?volts volts versus the reversible hydrogen electrode) in CO-saturated alkaline water. For the Nature study, Kanan and Li built an electrochemical cell: two electrodes placed in water saturated with carbon monoxide gas. We have a solution to this problem that’s made of copper, which is cheap and abundant.
