Embodiment 1

[0044] Embodiment 1: catalyst preparation

[0045] Weigh 10g of urea and 1g of anhydrous copper acetate, mix urea and anhydrous copper acetate evenly and physically to obtain a catalyst precursor, place the catalyst precursor in a 30mL crucible with a lid, and place it in a muffle furnace for pyrolysis Reaction, the reaction temperature is 400°C, the heating rate is 5°C / min, and the reaction time is 2h. The obtained solid is ground to obtain graphite-phase carbon nitride-supported nano-copper oxide, which is the carbon dioxide electrochemical reduction catalyst, called Cu x O@C 3 N 4 -400°C catalyst.

Embodiment 2

[0046] Embodiment 2: catalyst preparation

[0047] The specific preparation process is as shown in Example 1. Only by changing the reaction temperature to 450°C, the graphite-phase carbon nitride-supported nano-copper oxide can also be obtained, which is called Cu x O@C 3 N 4 -450°C catalyst. For Cu in Example 2 x O@C 3 N 4 XRD characterization of the catalyst at -450°C, such as figure 1 As shown, it can be seen that the catalyst includes graphite phase carbon nitride and nano-copper oxides in two crystal forms of cupolite and cuprite.

Embodiment 3

[0048] Embodiment 3: catalyst preparation

[0049] The specific preparation process is as shown in Example 1. Only by changing the reaction temperature to 500 ° C, can also obtain graphite-phase carbon nitride-supported nano-copper oxide, called Cu x O@C 3 N 4 -500°C catalyst. For Cu in Example 3 x O@C 3 N 4 XRD characterization of the catalyst at -500°C, such as figure 1 As shown, it can be seen that the catalyst includes graphite phase carbon nitride and nano-copper oxides in two crystal forms of cupolite and cuprite.
