Catalytic dehydrogenation of 2-propanol was carried out in the presence of suspended Rh/C, Ru/C, Pd/C, Pt/C or Pt/Al2O3 under boiling and refluxing conditions. Adding NaOH to the 2-propanol enhanced the H-2 evolution rate by a factor of 1.06-52.9, depending on the catalyst. The activity enhancements observed with KOH, Mg(OH)(2), Ca(OH)(2), and NaHCO3 were lower than those with NaOH.
