“…Analysis of these data shows that use of the metal-POSS precursor can provide formation of the active materials for ATR of CH 4 : the ex-Ni-POSS catalysts have performance in ATR of CH 4 which is comparable with or better than those presented by the traditionally prepared catalysts. The Ni/SiO 2 /Ce 0.5 Zr 0.5 O 2 -1 catalyst prepared by one-step Ni-POSS deposition gives the highest H 2 yield of 80% at T = 800 °C.…”

“…At present more than 50 million tons of hydrogen are produced annually worldwide and much of this hydrogen is used in the chemical and refinery industries [15]. In the future, it is expected that H 2 could be widely used for power generation and in transport by fueling gas turbines, fuel cells and combustion engines [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. The H 2 consumption rate steadily growths in the world and the 30% increase of global H 2 production is predicted in the next 5 years [15].…”

“…resources, nuclear energy (high-temperature water splitting) and electricity (electrolysis of water) [3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Although the "green" or carbon-neutral path from current fossil-based to future hydrogen economy is preferable and provides sustainable development [1][2][3][4], to date H 2 is usually produced from fossil fuels without CO 2 capture and storage [16,10,13]. Natural gas remains main feedstock for hydrogen production [8,13,14,16,17].…”

POSS (polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes) nanotechnology was applied for preparation of efficient Ni catalysts for hydrogen production through autothermal reforming of methane (ATR of CH 4 ). The novel metal-POSS precursor [Nickel (II) -HeptaisobutylPOSS (C 4 H 9 ) 7 Si 7 O 9 (OH)O 2 Ni] of Ni nanoparticles was introduced into Ce 0.5 Zr 0.5 O 2 support with following calcination and reduction stages of activation. The peculiarity of the genesis of Ni/SiO 2 /Ce 0.5 Zr 0.5 O 2 nanomaterials and their characteristics versus deposition mode were studied by X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, thermal analysis, N 2 adsorption, X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and H 2 temperature-programmed reduction. The two kinds of supported Ni-containing particles were observed: highly dispersed Ni forms (1-2 nm) and large Ni-containing particles (up to 50-100 nm in size). It was demonstrated that the textural, structural, red-ox and, consequently, catalytic properties of ex-Ni-POSS catalysts depend on the deposition mode. The increase of a portion of difficultly reduced Ni 2+ species is found upon application of intermediate calcination during Ni-POSS deposition that has detrimental effect on the activity of catalyst in ATR of CH 4 . The Ni/SiO 2 /Ce 0.5 Zr 0.5 O 2 catalyst prepared by one-step Ni-POSS deposition exhibits the highest H 2 yield -80% at T = 800 °C.

“…great rate of hydrogen production 42.9 L N,H2 dm −2 min −1 and quite high hydrogen partial pressure 4.04 MPa N,H2 ) from glycerol/water/ cobalt mixture at 723 K can be realized. Moreover, the operating temperature of 723 K is rather low, comparing with other hydrogen producing methods such as methane steam reforming, UT-3 and IS process [2] [15]- [17]. Then, operating temperatures around 723 K and above are concluded favorable for this hydrogen rich gas production via glycerol reforming reactions with cobalt additive in terms of the great hydrogen producing rate and high hydrogen partial pressure in the produced hydrogen rich gases.…”

One of the key issues facing the global society today is to find renewable and sustainable energy sources. Hydrogen has gained much attention in recent years since it is one of fuels for fuel cells. It emits no carbon dioxide when it is used and so on. In this study, a great rate production of high pressure hydrogen rich gas from glycerol/water/metal mixtures was developed since glycerol has become one of the enormous industrial by-products, especially from biodiesel processing plants. It was found that cobalt was the optimum metal additive among tested metals of aluminum, cobalt, magnesium and nickel in terms of a hydrogen producing rate, a hydrogen partial pressure and a conversion ratio from 50 mol% glycerol/water mixtures under an operating temperature of 723 K. Concretely, hydrogen rich gas with concentration about 64%H2 and high partial pressure about 4 MPaN,H2 could be produced at the great producing rate of 42.9 LN,H2dm −2 min −1 and high conversion ratio about 60%H2. All the produced hydrogen rich gases from glycerol/water/metal mixtures were by no means inferior to pure hydrogen as a fuel for the polymer electrolyte fuel cell.
