Environmental problems caused by fossil energy utilization have led to increased focus on renewable energy. This study synthesized NiCo2O4 as a catalyst for biomass pyrolysis and evaluated its performance in toluene pyrolysis and hydrogen production. The results showed that NiCo2O4 effectively pyrolyzed toluene at 300 degrees C, with a hydrogen yield of 0.6%. In the longevity test, toluene could be completely pyrolyzed for at least 5 hours at 400 degrees C, maintaining a high hydrogen yield of above 80%. The study suggests that NiCo2O4 has potential as a catalyst for ultra-low temperature biomass pyrolysis to produce hydrogen.
Environmental problems caused by the utilization of fossil energy are becoming more and more serious, so now more attention has been paid to the use of renewable energy. Pyrolysis of biomass is a method that convert biomass energy into hydrogen, but this method is subject to the performance of the catalyst for the pyrolytic reaction. In this study, NiCo2O4 was synthesized by coprecipitation method and examined by microstructure and textual characterizations. The ability of NiCo2O4 to pyrolyze toluene and produce hydrogen was evaluated by temperature-programmed experiment and lifetime test. It was found that the sample could pyrolyze toluene at the concentration of 1500 ppm at 300 degrees C with a hydrogen production of 0.6%, suggesting toluene was completely pyrolyzed. In the longevity test, toluene can be completely pyrolyzed for at least 5 h at 400 degrees C, with a high hydrogen yield of above 80% maintained during the pyrolysis process. As the pyrolysis reaction progresses, NiCo2O4 was gradually reduced to nickel-cobalt alloy by hydrogen from the pyrolysis of toluene, indicating the actual active site of nickel-cobalt alloy. This study gives a hint for developing a good catalyst for the ultra-low temperature biomass pyrolysis to produce hydrogen. (c) 2022 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
