Reaction mechanism of stream reforming of CO on the surface of Rh1Ni7/TiO2–x. ‘S’ denotes a stable sorption state; ‘TS’ denotes a transition state; ‘ISS’ denotes an intermedia stable state. (Blue, green, red, and orange dotted lines indicate CO disproportionation, H2O dissociation, formate generation, and CO2 desorption, respectively; blue and orange numbers represent adsorption energy and reaction energy barrier, respectively).
