Description: Thermochemical water splitting cycles, using the heat of nuclear power plants, offer an alternate highly efficient route for the production of hydrogen. Among the many possible thermochemical cycles for the hydrogen production, the sulfur-based cycles lead the competition in overall energy efficiency. A variant on sulfur-based thermochemical cycles is the Hybrid Sulfur (HyS) Process, which uses a sulfur dioxide depolarized electrolyzer (SDE) to produce hydrogen.

Hydrogen Production From Photolysis of Steam Adsorbed Onto Platinized SrTiO{Sub 3}

Description: Photodissociation of high presssure (1-8 atm) water vapor adsorbed onto the partially platinized surface of single crystal SrTiO{sub 3} has been observed. The reaction is catalytic; several thousands of monolayers of hydrogen have been produced. The reaction requires light of greater than bandgap (3.1 eV) energy, and proceeds vigorously only if elevated temperatures (375- 450 K) and high pressures are used. Recombination of products and poisoning of the metal appears to diminish the reaction ra… more

Bimetallic Nanocatalysts in Mesoporous Silica for Hydrogen Production From Coal-Derived Fuels

Description: In steam reforming reactions (SRRs) of alkanes and alcohols to produce H{sub 2}, noble metals such as platinum (Pt) and palladium (Pd) are extensively used as catalyst. These metals are expensive; so, to reduce noble-metal loading, bi-metallic nanocatalysts containing non-noble metals in MCM-41 (Mobil Composition of Material No. 41, a mesoporous material) as a support material with high-surface area were synthesized using one-pot hydrothermal procedure with a surfactant such as cetyltrimethylam… more
