Comparison with conventional Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalysts revealed the same or better methanol synthesis activity, as well as considerably lower production of CO. Another challenge arises with the use of CO-free CO 2 , which will lead to CO as a by-product of methanol via the reverse water–gas shift (rWGS) reaction. —Studt et al.
