Progress on plasma-induced catalytic enhancement of ammonia decomposition for hydrogen production
This paper delves into the current situation of research on application of various plasma discharge configurations in NH3 decomposition,with a particular emphasis on the impact of reactor design parameters and operational conditions on the efficiency of ammonia decomposition under dielectric barrier discharge(DBD)plasma.Subsequently,this paper explores the synergistic effects and enhancement mechanisms between plasma and catalyst on NH3 decomposition process,confirming that the optimization of the support and active metal components of catalyst can effectively boost the synergy between plasma and catalyst,thereby enhancing the decomposition efficiency and reducing energy consumption of NH3 decomposition process.On this basis,this paper highlights two crucial directions for advancing plasma-induced NH3 decomposition to hydrogen technology,i.e.,improving dielectric barrier discharge reactor,and developing low-cost transition metal catalysts with high efficiency at low temperature.
