The active sites of Cu–ZnO catalysts for water gas shift and CO hydrogenation reactions
Identification of active sites of a catalyst is the Holy Grail in heterogeneous catalysis. Here, the authors successfully identify the CuCu(100)- hydroxylated ZnO ensemble and CuCu(611)Zn alloy as the active sites of Cu-ZnO catalysts for water gas shift and CO hydrogenation reactions, respectively.
