METHOD OF HYDROGEN STORAGE BY CARRYING OUT CATALYTIC REACTIONS OF HYDRATION/DEHYDRATION OF AROMATIC SUBSTRATES UNDER ACTION OF SHF (HF) RADIATION Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC C01B3/26 C07C5/333 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of catalysis and organic chemistry, in particular, to method of intensification of catalytic reactions under action of SHF (HF) radiation with essential reduction of energy consumption, which can be used when producing devices for hydrogen storage based on reversible reactions of hydration-dehydration of aromatic compounds. Method of hydrogen storage is based on carrying out reversible catalytic reactions of hydration-dehydration of organic substrate by heating it for absorption and releasing hydrogen using heterogeneous catalyst. As organic substrate, aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbons or aromatic oligomers are used. Heterogeneous catalyst includes carbonic or oxide carrier and active metal applied on it, chosen from the line Pt, Pd, Ni in amount of 0.1 to 15 weight %. Stage of hydrogen absorption and its release from organic substrate is carried out under action of SHF or HF radiation on the said heterogeneous catalyst.

EFFECT: increased rate of hydration and dehydration reactions.
