Journal ArticleDOI

Active sites for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol on Cu/ZnO catalysts

TL;DR: A direct comparison between the activity of ZnCu and ZnO/Cu model catalysts for methanol synthesis is reported, highlighting a synergy of Cu andZnO at the interface that facilitates methenol synthesis via formate intermediates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly active copper-ceria and copper-ceria-titania catalysts for methanol synthesis from co2

TL;DR: Experimental and theoretical evidence is presented for a completely different type of site for CO2 activation: a copper-ceria interface that is highly efficient for the synthesis of methanol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Catalysts for hydrogen evolution from the [NiFe] hydrogenase to the Ni2P(001) surface: the importance of ensemble effect.

TL;DR: In this paper, density functional theory was employed to investigate the behavior of a series of catalysts used in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER, 2H(+) + 2e(-) --> H(2)).
Journal ArticleDOI

Activity of CeOx and TiOx Nanoparticles Grown on Au(111) in the Water-Gas Shift Reaction

TL;DR: The high performance of Au-CeO2 and Au-TiO2 catalysts in the water-gas shift (WGS) reaction (H2O + CO→H2 + CO2) relies heavily on the direct participation of the oxide in the catalytic process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tuning Selectivity of CO2 Hydrogenation Reactions at the Metal/Oxide Interface

TL;DR: A better understanding of the complex reaction network is provided, the capability of manipulating structure and combination of metal and oxide at the interface in tuning selectivity is grasped, and the key descriptors to control the activity and, in particular, the selectivity of catalysts are identified.
