Article Synopsis
  • The reverse water gas shift reaction offers a potential solution for reducing CO emissions by converting carbon monoxide (CO) into syngas, but achieving high activity and selectivity with non-Cu catalysts remains a challenge.
  • A highly dispersed Ni species on hydroxylated TiO is created, leading to the formation of stable ~1 nm Ni clusters, which enhance both CO conversion rates and selectivity.
  • The study reveals that the unique properties of the Ni cluster/TiO catalyst stem from strong interfacial sites that effectively activate CO while allowing for weak CO adsorption, effectively resolving the activity-selectivity trade-off in the reaction.

The water gas shift (WGS) reaction is a key process in the industrial hydrogen production and the development and application of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell. Metal oxide-supported highly dispersed Pt has been proved as an efficient catalyst for the WGS reaction. In this work, a series of supported 0.
