Uncovering the reaction mechanism behind CoO as active phase for CO2 hydrogenation
Catalytic conversion of CO2 into valuable hydrocarbons is a promising way to mitigate climate change. This work uncovers that cobalt oxide nanoparticles on a titania carrier produce more C2+ hydrocarbons than their metallic cobalt counterpart by following a different reaction mechanism.
