Hydrogen Storage and Delivery: The Carbon Dioxide – Formic Acid Couple

Gabor Laurenczy

Carbon dioxide and the carbonates, the available natural C-1 sources, can be easily hydrogenated into formic acid and formates in water; the rate of this reduction strongly depends on the pH of the solution. This reaction is catalysed by ruthenium(II) pre- ...

Hydrogen Storage in Formic Acid – Amine Adducts

Gabor Laurenczy, Matthias Beller

Formic acid, containing 4.4 wt% of hydrogen, is a non-toxic liquid at ambient temperature and therefore an ideal candidate as potential hydrogen storage material. Formic acid can be generated via catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 or bicarbonate in the presenc ...

Homogeneous catalytic decomposition of formic acid for high pressure hydrogen generation

Céline Fellay

The main obstacles in the widespread use of hydrogen as energetic alternative to fossil fuels are storage problems intrinsically linked to its extremely light and explosive nature. Since no ideal storage systems currently exist, reversible fixation of hydr ...

Novel catalytic applications of carbon nanofibers on sintered metal fibers filters as structured supports

Marina Ruta

Supported metal catalysts are important from both an industrial and a scientific point of view. They are used, amongst others, in large-scale processes such as catalytic reforming, hydrotreating, polymerization reactions and hydrogenations. Often, these ca ...

Catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes under biphasic conditions

Corinne Daguenet

Ruthenium(II)-arene diphosphine complexes are shown to be effective precursors for the catalytic hydrogenation of the C=C bond in an aqueous biphase using molecular hydrogen as the hydrogen source. A mechanistic study performed in water, utilizing high gas ...

Solvent-Free Selective Hydrogenation of 2-Butyne-1,4-diol over Structured Palladium Catalyst

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi, Eric Joannet

Hydrogenation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol catalyzed by Pd nanoparticles on activated carbon fibers (ACFs) was studied. The ACF support in the form of woven fabrics provides the basis for structured catalytic fixed beds. In the present study, this catalyst was int ...
