Abstract

Abstract: The catalyst for the ammonia decomposition to produce hydrogen is particularly important. The composition,structure,substrate,auxiliary agent and so on,all can affect the activity of catalysts. The researches of catalyst modification in recent years was systematically reviewed based on the change of the morphologies and microstructure of catalysts,the influence of different substrate,the doping and modification of promotes. Meanwhile,the application of ore and industrial waste in ammonia decomposition were introduced. It is pointed out that the synergic effect between hosts and carrier/additives promotes the selectivity of hydrogen production,which possesses great potential and practical value for further design of new catalyst employed at low pressure and low temperature for ammonia decomposition. Reducing the energy consumption of the ammonia decomposition should be the research direction of the catalysts in the future.

Key words: hydrogen production, catalyst support, catalyst activation, synergistic effect
