Original Abstract Submitted
An electrochemical cell includes a working electrode, a counter electrode, and an electrolyte covering the working electrode and the counter electrode. The working electrode and the counter electrode are configured so that, in response to a voltage applied between the working electrode and the counter electrode, electrons are supplied from the counter electrode to the working electrode, and the working electrode adsorbs COin association with the electrons being supplied. The counter electrode is not provided with an active material and is made of a porous material.
