DFT study on decomposition of hydrazine nitrate on Ir(1 0 0) surface

The reaction kinetics and mechanism of catalytic decomposition of hydrazine nitrate on Ru/C catalyst in nitric acid solutions

“…Very recently, heterogeneous catalysis (eqn (3)) has been proven to be an efficient and readily available method for effecting the decomposition of hydrazine nitrate. [7][8][9][10][11] This method offers several advantages: (i) a small amount of tail gas generated, (ii) ease of operation, (iii) simple device structure, and (iv) small reactor volume. In addition, only a small amount of ammonium nitrate is generated during the catalytic decomposition of hydrazine nitrate (approximately a mass of 0.79 kg of ammonium nitrate is produced when disposing of one ton of waste liquid), and this generation of ammonium nitrate has almost no effect on the chemical denitration because ammonium nitrate is stable in various solutions.…”
