Advanced bioH₂ and bioCH₄ production with cobalt-doped magnetic carbon

Abstract

In this work, a novel cobalt-doped magnetic carbon (CDMC) was prepared to boost hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4) generation.

Metals and metallic composites as emerging nanocatalysts for fermentative hydrogen production

“…82 Similarly, improved hydrogen productivity was reported by Zhang and his research group when cobalt-doped magnetic carbon (CDMC) was synthesized and applied to DFHP. 83 They observed that 600 mg L −1 of CDMC can boost the hydrogen generation to 176 mL H 2 g glucose −1 compared to control (no CDMC added) with 102 mL H 2 g glucose −1 , and concluded that the supplementation of carbon matrix with nanoparticles could be an efficient strategy for improved hydrogen productivity. Besides, many other nanoparticle-carbon matrix–based composites were investigated in the DFHP system, as depicted in Table 4.…”
