Production of H2 and Glucaric Acid Using Electrocatalyst Glucose Oxidation by the Ta NiFe LDH Electrode

The slow anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) significantly limits electrocatalytic water splitting for hydrogen production. We proposed the electrocatalyst for glucose oxidation by Ta-doping NiFe LDH nanosheets to simultaneously obtain glucaric acid (GRA) and hydrogen gas as a useful byproduct. Superior glucose oxidation reaction (GOR) activity is demonstrated by the optimized Ta-NiFe LDH, which has a low overpotential of 192 mV, allowing for a small Tafel slope of 70 mV dec
