Ammonia is one of the most commonly produced chemicals in the industry. As a result, ∼1–2% of the world’s electrical energy is used, and it produces ∼1.5–2% of global CO2 emissions. Therefore, developing efficient catalysts at milder conditions is highly desirable. Here, efficient iron/cobalt cataly...
