Hydrogen can be used as an energy carrier for renewable energy to overcome the deficiency of its intrinsically intermittent supply. One of the most promising application of hydrogen energy is on‐board hydrogen fuel cells. However, the lack of a safe, efficient, convenient, and low‐cost storage and transportation method for hydrogen limits their application. The feasibility of mainstream hydrogen storage techniques for application in vehicles is briefly discussed in this Review. Formic acid (FA), which can reversibly be converted into hydrogen and carbon dioxide through catalysis, has significant potential for practical application. Historic developments and recent examples of homogeneous noble metal catalysts for FA dehydrogenation are covered, and the catalysts are classified based on their ligand types. The Review primarily focuses on the structure−function relationship between the ligands and their reactivity and aims to provide suggestions for designing new and efficient catalysts for H2 generation from FA.
The porous adsorbent was prepared by loading with zirconium ions. A batch of adsorption experiments were carried under various conditions. The result suggested that the adsorbent showed well potential for defluorination.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
