The electrochemical ammonia oxidation reaction (AOR) is a promising anodic reaction for hydrogen production, offering a lower theoretical potential compared to oxygen evolution reaction. Despite this thermodynamic advantage, AOR suffers from sluggish multi-electron transfer reaction kinetics and the regeneration of catalytically active Ni3+ species, which limits both activity and durability. In this study, amorphous NiCu bimetallic catalysts were prepared via facile precipitating metal nitrate deposition (PMND) method. The addition of Cu induces a robust Ni2+/Ni3+ transition, stabilizing catalytically active Ni3+ species and modulating the electronic structure of Ni. It alters the oxidation and desorption behavior of nitrogen-containing intermediates and facilitating their conversions to NOx species, resulting in fast active site regeneration. Furthermore, amorphous structure provides abundant dangling bonds, which enhances the intrinsic reactivity and accessibility of active sites rather than increasing the number of active sites. As a result, these effects accelerate the overall reaction kinetics. The optimized NiCu 5:1 catalyst achieved an ammonia removal efficiency of ∼100 % and a hydrogen production rate of 2.45 mmol/(h∙cm2) at 1.6 VRHE.
