Concept of catalyst–catalysis co-exploration

Caption

Conventional catalyst development usually fixes a target reaction first and then searches for better catalysts. In this study, catalysts and reactions are explored simultaneously across a broad CH4–O2–CO2 reaction space. By combining high-throughput experimentation and non-targeted mass analysis, a one-million-point reaction dataset was obtained, revealing high-performance catalyst–reaction combinations and hints of previously overlooked reactions.
