Methodological information
==========================
A brief method description ?what the data is, how and why it was collected or created, and how it was processed:
The data describes a study of how CO2 supply method and alkaline catholyte affect the reaction performance of CO2 electro-reduction catalyzed by CuxO catalyst. The detailed experimental information can be refered to the paper: Enhanced selectivity of carbonaceous products from electrochemical reduction of CO2 in aqueous media. Journal of CO2 Utilization. 2019.
