Nature Catalysis, Published online: 01 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41929-026-01546-3Bifunctional oxide–zeolite catalysts work in tandem to produce light olefins from syngas, but the precise mechanistic picture is complex and remains elusive. Now the reaction mechanism on a ZnCrOx/mordenite catalyst is studied in detail using a diffusion-bridged microkinetic model, and design principles are proposed.
