Practical-scale H2O2 production enabled by paired electrosynthesis

High-performance H₂O₂ electrosynthesis devices replacing the anthraquinone process have been actively pursued. In the July issue of Chem Catalysis, Wang et al. reported an efficient anodic H₂O₂ production electrocatalyst and a full cell that achieves practical-scale H₂O₂ production, enabled by paired H₂O₂ synthesis via water oxidation and oxygen reduction.
