  • 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.

  • Alternative fuels such as biomethane are attractive, although their combustion generates pollutants such as formaldehyde that impair conventional abatement technologies. This study elucidates the impact of HCHO during the selective catalytic reduction of NOx over Cu-SSZ-13 catalysts, revealing important structural and mechanistic aspects.

  • Highly active, selective and stable catalysts for the hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol are immensely sought after. Now, using a broad range of spectroscopic methods, in-plane double sulfur vacancies of MoS2 sheets have been suggested to catalyse this reaction using an unusual mechanism.

  • Nanomaterials may present interesting catalytic properties, but well-defined model systems are rare. Here, a Au–Pd core–shell catalyst is investigated for selective hydrogenation of butadiene, with shell-thickness-dependent catalytic activity, high selectivity and activity 50 times greater than that of alloyed counterparts.

  • A universal descriptor for the prediction of C–H bond activation barriers has been established, and combined with a thermodynamic analysis of methane activation, to provide design rules for various types of heterogeneous catalysts.

  • Inexpensive iron catalysts often exhibit low activity in ammonia decomposition due to a strong iron-nitrogen binding energy. Here the authors demonstrate that combining iron with cobalt to form a Fe-Co bimetallic catalyst overcomes this limitation, presenting a promising solution for enhancing ammonia decomposition efficiency.

  • Producing hydrogen peroxide via electrochemical oxidation of water is an attractive route to this valuable product. Here the authors theoretically and experimentally investigate hydrogen peroxide production activity trends for a range of metal oxides and identify the optimal bias ranges for high Faraday efficiencies.

  • Single-atom catalysts hold great promise for process optimization by reducing metal utilization. However, their structure–activity properties remain elusive. Here, a combination of operando techniques and density functional theory analysis is used to capture the evolution of single platinum atoms on CeO2 during CO, C3H6 and CH4 oxidation.
