The CO2 conversion process at the interface between DEME-BF4 electrolytes containing Ca(OH)2 aqueous solution and silver electrodes

Caption

The production of hydrocarbons occurs through two intermediates formed on the surface of the silver electrode to produce useful hydrocarbons like ethylene, ethane, propylene, and propane.
