Synthesis of Pure Hydrogen through the Catalytic Decomposition of Methane

摘要

The catalytic performances of supported-Ni and supported-Pd-Ni catalysts for the methane decomposition have been examined to produce pure hydrogen as much as possible. The structures of the coproduced carbon nanofibers have been observed by TEM images. A reproducible and cyclic methane decomposition and gasification of the carbon nanofibers with CO_2, H_2O and air have been described.
