Supported Ni catalysts are promising for CO2 hydrogenation because of their relatively cheap price with comparable activity to noble metal catalysts. The product of CO2 hydrogenation over a supported Ni catalyst can theoretically be methane, CO, methanol and formic acid. The electronic and geometric...
