Catalysis Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Formic acid (FA) has attracted increasing interest in the utilization as a promising hydrogen carrier. Nitrogen-doped activated carbons were used as support to prepare well-dispersed Pd/C catalyst for hydrogen production from FA. The introduced N species adjusted the electronic properties of Pd and promoted dispersion of Pd, which were beneficial to improve the catalytic activity. Pd supported on the activated carbon aminated at 950 °C (the particle size of Pd is 2.8 ± 0.1 nm) showed the highest turnover frequency (TOF) of 1631 h−1 at 30 °C.
