Recent engineering advances in nanocatalysts for NH3-to-H2 conversion technologies

Duy Thanh Tran et al.

Summary: The production and handling of hydrogen energy is crucial for achieving a sustainable hydrogen economy. Ammonia electrooxidation reaction (AER) is considered an effective method for high-performance hydrogen energy application, but its efficiency is affected by low temperature and the cost of electric source and catalytic efficiency. Designing nanocatalysts with unique surface chemistry, electronic structure, electroactive sites, and conductivity is important for enhancing their activity and stability in AER. Studying the AER kinetics and mechanism on nanocatalyst surface can provide insights for commercialization. This review summarizes recent NH3-to-H-2 technologies and discusses the development and potential commercialization of nanocatalysts for hydrogen production via AER.
