The excessive enrichment of nitrate in the environment can be convertedinto ammonia (NH3) through electrochemical processes, offering significantimplications for modern agriculture and the potential to reduce the burden ofthe Haber–Bosch (HB) process while achieving environmentally friendly NH3production. Emerging research on electrocatalytic nitrate reduction (eNitRR) toNH3has gained considerable momentum in recent years for efficient NH3syn-thesis. However, existing reviews on nitrate reduction have primarily focusedon limited aspects, often lacking a comprehensive summary of catalysts, reac-tion systems, reaction mechanisms, and detection methods employed in nitratereduction. This review aims to provide a timely and comprehensive analysis ofthe eNitRR field by integrating existing research progress and identifying cur-rent challenges. This review offers a comprehensive overview of the researchprogress achieved using various materials in electrochemical nitrate reduction,elucidates the underlying theoretical mechanism behind eNitRR, and discusseseffective strategies based on numerous case studies to enhance the electro-chemical reduction from NO3˗to NH3. Finally, this review discusses challengesand development prospects in the eNitRR field with an aim to guide designand development of large-scale sustainable nitrate reduction electrocatalysts.
