| description | The research in this study focused on the operating parameters for a high efficiency hydrogen production rate system, with the aim to design a hydrolysis of the NaBH<sub>4</sub> hydrogen production module for lightweight and efficient hydrogen production and conversion. The experiment used a reactor, where the reaction volume was about 12 mL. The parameters on the feed rate of the NaBH<sub>4</sub> solution and the catalyst loading for the hydrogen production rate and conversion efficiency were investigated. The catalyst is sufficient to allow the release of hydrogen in the 1 g/min solution, but the efficiency of hydrogen production at high flow rates has been shown to be low in previous studies. Therefore, the aim is to increase the catalyst to improve the reaction efficiency in this study. The results show that at the high temperature reaction condition, solid NaBO<sub>2</sub> will not generate on the catalyst surface to influence the hydrogen production rate when using the five pcs catalyst. When the reaction temperature was 108 °C, the average hydrogen production rate was 1.72 L/min, and the conversion efficiency was 91.2%. |
