A simple and scalable synthesis of a 3D Fe 2 N‐based nanoaerogel is reported with superior oxygen reduction reaction activity from waste seaweed biomass, addressed the growing energy scarcity. The merits are due to the synergistic effect of the 3D porous hybrid aerogel support with excellent electrical conductivity, convenient mass transport and O 2 adsorption, and core/shell structured Fe 2 N/N‐doped amorphous carbon nanoparticles.
