Efficiently combining first-principles and semi-empirical methods we identified the elementary steps that govern CO2 production/consumption in reforming processes on Rh at different operating conditions. These findings provide peculiar insights to rationalize the complex experimental evidence both in terms of involved elementary steps and their kinetic relevance.
