A Ni-Ga catalyst that reduces CO2 to methanol at ambient pressure has been discovered through a descriptor-based computational analysis, and has been shown experimentally to be particularly active and selective. This represents a first step towards the development of small-scale low-pressure processes for CO2 reduction to methanol from distributed hydrogen production.
