What does hydrogen gas mean?
Medical Definition of hydrogen
: a nonmetallic element that is the simplest and lightest of the elements and that is normally a colorless odorless highly flammable diatomic gas —symbol H — see deuterium, tritium.
Hydrogen gas is sometimes used directly to create an acid. For example, it is used in the creation of hydrochloric acid: H2 + Cl2 → 2HCl. Hydrogen gas is used in the processing of petroleum products to break down crude oil into fuel oil, gasoline, and such.

Visible light assisted hydrogen generation from complete decomposition of hyd...Pawan Kumar
Hydrogen is considered to be an ideal energy carrier, which produces only water when combined with
oxygen and thus has no detrimental effect on the environment. While the catalytic decomposition of
hydrous hydrazine for the production of hydrogen is well explored, little is known about its photocatalytic
decomposition. The present paper describes a highly efficient photochemical methodology for the production
of hydrogen through the decomposition of aqueous hydrazine using titanium dioxide nanoparticles
modified with a Rh(I) coordinated catechol phosphane ligand (TiO2–Rh) as a photocatalyst under visible
light irradiation. After 12 h of visible light irradiation, the hydrogen yield was 413 μmol g−1 cat with a hydrogen
evolution rate of 34.4 μmol g−1 cat h−1. Unmodified TiO2 nanoparticles offered a hydrogen yield of
83 μmol g−1 cat and a hydrogen evolution rate of only 6.9 μmol g−1 cat h−1. The developed photocatalyst
was robust under the experimental conditions and could be efficiently reused for five subsequent runs
without any significant change in its activity. The higher stability of the photocatalyst is attributed to the
covalent attachment of the Rh complex, whereas the higher activity is believed to be due to the synergistic
mechanism that resulted in better electron transfer from the Rh complex to the conduction band of TiO2

NaBH4 hydrolysis
NaBH4 + 2H2O →NaBO2 + 4H2 ∆H = -75kJ/mol H2
If 1 gm of NaBH4 is fully ionized it produce 2.37 l of
hydrogen at STP.
GSD is 10.8wt% which is greater than the DOE
target.

12. Catalytic research
The catalysts generally used in hydrolysis can
be classified as –
Transition metal or non-noble metal catalysts
Noble metal catalysts
12Slide of 25
13. Catalytic researches on NaBH4
Non-noble metal catalysts
Most effective
Cobalt (II) chloride followed by Nickel(II)
And Iron, Manganese Chloride.
Cobalt mainly alloy with boron.
13Slide of 25
14. Effect of introduction of other materials
Introduction of other elements into Co-B
catalysts increases its activity.
Reason(s)
An increase in electron density of the
metallic Co active site.
Surface area increases because the additive
metals inhibit Co agglomeration.
14Slide of 25
15. Stability of Catalyst
Example
a filamentary Ni catalyst is studied over 200
catalytic cycles, and retained 76% of its initial
activity.
Reason:
Gradual formation of a film, consist of
hydrated borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) and boron
oxide (B2O3), on the catalyst surface.
15Slide of 25
16. Noble metal catalyst
Higher concentration of NaOH stabilizer in
solution decreases the activity of Ru. So Ru-based
catalysts may not be the most ideal choice.
The Pt catalyst loaded on LiCoO2 - one of the
most efficient catalysts for NaBH4 hydrolysis.
The most active catalyst reported is Rh loaded on
TiO2
16Slide of 25
17. Catalytic research on NH3BH3
Non-noble metal catalyst
1. Co, Ni and Cu supported catalyst- the most
catalytically active.
2. supported Fe is catalytically inactive.
3. the amorphous Fe nano-particles form in situ in
presence of NaBH4 show exceptionally high
catalytic activity .
Reasons(3)
much greater structural distortion
much higher concentration of active sites for the
catalytic reaction 17Slide of 25
18. • Noble metal-based catalysts
The 20 wt% Pt/C catalyst shows the super high
activity and the reaction is completed in less
than 2 min.
Reason
reduction of Ptn+ (n = 4, 6) to Pto during the
course of the reaction,
Rh[(1,5-COD)(μ-Cl)]2 and Pd black have
lower activity and some noble metal oxides
(RuO2, Ag2O, Au2O3, IrO2) are almost inactive.

21. The activity loss in case of noble metal catalyst is
very much lower than that of non-noble metal
catalysts.
Reason of decrease in activity:
In case of NaBH4 it is the gradual formation of a
film, consist of hydrated borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O)
and boron oxide (B2O3), on the catalyst surface.

must be controlled.
Conclusion
24Slide of 25
1. Water handling The hydrolysis reaction of sodium borohydride is generally written stoichiometrically i.e. with the quantity of water just required to evolve hydrogen: NaBH4 + 2H2O -> NaBO2 + 4H2 + heat (4.1) This equation is also known as the ideal NaBH4 hydrolysis reaction. However, during the hydrolysis of NaBH4 mixtures of hydrated sodium metaborate is formed and, for that reason, reaction (4.1) is always demands excess of water, accordingly to the following equation: NaBH4 + (2 + x) H2O -> NaBO2·xH2O + 4H2 + heat (4.2) where x is the hydration factor. Hence, in general, the hydrated by-product is usually either NaBO2·2H2O or NaBO2·4H2O, which requires an excess of water. In truth, most cases for hydride hydrolysis require a large excess of water to pre-dissolve the hydride for storage or to keep the by-products in solution.
