Hydrogen stored in a chemical form as liquid organic compounds and released in-situ on demand through efficient catalytic processes at low temperature is a highly desirable hydrogen storage and transportation strategy. A recent breakthrough was reported by the Ma group at Peking University and their collaborators. They have developed a novel Pt/α-MoC catalyst with atomically dispersed Pt over α-MoC. The exceptional hydrogen production activity comes from the outstanding ability of α-MoC for water dissociation and the unique synergy between Pt and α-MoC for methanol activation and successive reforming processes.
