Using enzymes as bioelectrocatalysts is an important step toward the next level of biotechnology for energy production. In such biocatalysts, a sacrificial cofactor as an electron and proton source is needed. This is a great obstacle for upscaling, due to cofactor instability and product separation issues, which increase the costs. Here, we report a cofactor-free electroreduction of CO<sub>2</sub> to a high energy density chemical (methanol) catalyzed by enzyme-graphene hybrids. The biocatalyst ...[more]
