%X The conversion efficiency and product selectivity of the electroreduction of carbon dioxide have been largely limited by the low CO2 solubility in aqueous solution. To relieve this problem, Cu3(BTC)2 (Cu-MOF) as CO2 capture agent was introduced into a carbon paper based gas diffusion electrode (GDE) in this study. The faradaic efficiencies (FEs) of CH4 on GDE with Cu-MOF weight ratio in the range of 7.5¨C10% are 2¨C3-fold higher than that of GDE without Cu-MOF addition under negative potentials (£¿2.3 to £¿2.5 V vs SCE), and the FE of the competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is reduced to 30%. This work paves the way to develop GDE with high catalytic activity for ERC
