CATALYTIC COMPOSITE MATERIAL FOR STORAGE OF HYDROGEN AND METHOD OF STORAGE OF HYDROGEN IN CATALYTIC SYSTEMS ON BASIS OF HYDROGENATION/DEHYDROGENATION REACTIONS OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC B01J7/00 B01J23/38 C01B3/26 

FIELD: methods of storage of hydrogen in catalytic systems functioning on basis of cyclic hydrogenation/de-hydrogenation reactions of condensed and poly-nuclear aromatic compounds; hydrogen generators; hydrogen engines or plants.

SUBSTANCE: proposed catalytic composite material contains organic substrate as hydrogen source which is liable to hydrogenation/dehydrogenation reactions. Material contains heterogeneous catalyst including carbon or oxide carrier at high specific surface and metal of VIII (platinum) group applied on this surface at mass ratio of substrate and catalyst from 10:1 to 1000:1. Organic substrate contains the following aromatic hydrocarbons: condensed, poly-cyclic, poly-unsaturated, aromatic oligomers and polymers: biphenyl or its functional derivative, or terphenyl, or naphthalene, or anthracene, or functional derivative of one or other, polystyrene or its copolymer, polyacetylene or polycumulene. Proposed method consists in charging the composite material with hydrogen at high pressure and separation of hydrogen from it at low-pressure heating. Charging is carried out at contact of organic substrate and heterogeneous catalyst at temperature of from 50 to 180°C and hydrogen pressure of from 1 to 100 atm; separation of hydrogen is carried out at contact of hydrogenated of organic substrate with the same catalyst at temperature of from 200 to 350°C at atmospheric pressure.

EFFECT: enhanced efficiency.
