Ni-N4 sites in a single-atom Ni catalyst on N-doped carbon for hydrogen production from formic acid

A single Palladium (Pd) atom embedded in a high curvature defective carbon nanocone (Pd/dCNC) is investigated for formic acid (FA) decompositions using DFT calculations. We used Pd/dCNC as the catalyst...

Commercial Applications

The present study investigates a process for the selective production of hydrogen from the catalytic decomposition of formic acid in the presence of iridium and iridium–palladium nanoparticles under various conditions. It was found that a loading of 1 wt.% of 2% palladium in the presence of 1% iridium over activated charcoal led to a 43% conversion of formic acid to hydrogen at room temperature after 4 h. Increasing the temperature to 60 °C led to further decomposition and an improvement in conversion yield to 63%. Dilution of formic acid from 0.5 to 0.2 M improved the decomposition, reaching conversion to 81%. The reported process could potentially be used in commercial applications.
