Abstract
Abstract Atmospheric CO 2 is a cheap and abundant source of carbon for synthetic applications. However, the stability of CO 2 makes its conversion to other carbon compounds difficult and has prompted the extensive development of CO 2 reduction catalysts. Bioelectrocatalysts are generally more selective, highly efficient, can operate under mild conditions, and use electricity as the sole reducing agent. Improving the communication between an electrode and a bioelectrocatalyst remains a significant area of development. Through the examples of CO 2 reduction catalyzed by electroactive enzymes and whole cells, recent advancements in this area are compared and contrasted.
