The Cover demonstrates the mechanism of NO reduction to N 2 in the Di‐Air de‐NO x system based on the ceria model catalyst. In their Communication, Wang et al. have proven that NO dissociates on oxygen anion defects of ceria, thereby refilling these vacancies with oxygen anions and forming N 2 . The oxidation of deposited carbon by oxygen species originating from ceria lattice oxygen re‐creates oxygen defect for NO reduction to N 2 . Our work, therefore, provides an alternative view on the role of hydrocarbons in the reduction of NO to N 2 . More information can be found in the Communication by Wang et al. on page 102 in Issue 1, 2016 (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.201501038).
