Photo-thermal ammonia decomposition

该项目旨在开发新型催化剂，旨在利用光和热对氨的光热分解产生氢气，并对光在热催化反应中的作用产生新的理解。氢经济的出现迫切需要安全高效的氢运输和储存载体。氨是一种氢载体，由于其相对容易储存，越来越多地被认为是促进氢经济的潜在关键。专为氨分解捕捉光线的催化剂的开发，将为氢经济提供一条新的潜在途径，将氨作为氢的载体。

This project aims to develop of novel catalysts targeted to utilise light and heat for the photo-thermal decomposition of ammonia to produce hydrogen and generate new understanding on the role of light in thermal catalytic reactions. The emergence of the hydrogen economy has resulted in the urgent need for safe and efficient hydrogen transport and storage vectors. Ammonia, a hydrogen carrier, is being increasingly considered as a potential key to facilitate the hydrogen economy due to its relative ease of storage. The development of catalysts tailored toward capturing light for ammonia decomposition will enable a new potential pathway for the hydrogen economy, with ammonia as a hydrogen vector.
