Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/002881
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A method for producing hydrogen involving contacting steam or a gas containing steam with iron or an iron oxide, wherein the iron or the iron oxide is added with at least one metal of Rh, Ir, Ru, Pd, Pt and Os and at least one metal of Ti, Zr, V, Nb, Cr, Mo, Al, Ga, Mg, Sc, Ni and Cu. The method provides a medium for generating hydrogen which is capable of generating hydrogen at a relatively low temperature and at a great generation rate, is free from the decrease of activity, and is resistant to repeated oxidation and reduction, which leads to the decomposition of water and production of hydrogen with good efficiency.
