DESCRIPTION
The ammonia decomposition performance of nickel-based catalysts can be significantly improved by supporting them on a perovskite-type oxynitride like h-BaTiO3−xNy, demonstrate researchers from Tokyo Tech in a new study. They found that replacing oxygen sites in the lattice of the support material with N3– ions reduced the operating temperature by over 140℃ and increased the efficiency of the catalyst.
