Abstract:

The ocean is an important energy treasure house for human society in the future, and contains huge reserves of energy in various forms. Catalytic technology is a key technology to improve the utilization efficiency and conversion of energy and resources, and it is even more important in terms of the huge resource reserves of the ocean. Single-atom catalyst have excellent tunability, high selectivity, and high active site utilization. Therefore, single- atom catalysts compatible with the marine environment show superior application potential. Herein, the research progress of single-atom catalysis in the fields of marine hydrogen energy, marine energy conversion and seawater uranium extraction is systematically summarized. Moreover, comprehensive perspectives are given to guide the further research and development of single-atom catalysis in marine energy.

Key words: Marine energy, Single-atom catalysis, Hydrogen energy, Seawater battery, Uranium extraction from seawater
