Catalytic Reactions in Hydrogen Energy Production: Physicochemical Fundamentals elucidates the activation mechanism of molecular chemical bonds, the construction law of catalytic site orientation and the catalytic mechanism in the catalytic reaction processes involved in hydrogen energy production (including electrocatalysis, photocatalysis and thermocatalysis, summarizing the related hydrogen-producing catalytic theories (hydrogen production by water decomposition, hydrogen production by water vapor transformation, hydrogen production by methane, etc). This is to help develop a series of efficient catalysts, achieve technical breakthroughs in green hydrogen and blue hydrogen production, and innovate the catalytic theory of renewable energy to establish a theoretical database. The text is divided into four main parts dealing with: electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, thermocatalysis, and finally, hydrogen energy applications, conclusions, and outlook. There are two key aspects of hydrogen industry involved in this book: 1) Precise interface regulation and microscopic mechanism of heterogeneous catalysis hydrogen production systems. 2) Discussion of catalytic materials and theory of efficient hydrogen production and discussion on their application value and practical prospect.
The authors also pay special attention to the analysis of the thermodynamic and kinetic theories of catalytic reactions, providing scientific basis for the optimization of reaction conditions and the speculation of reaction mechanism. This book is written primarily for graduate students and early researchers in the chemical sciences grounded in inorganic and physical chemistry, coordination chemistry, molecular dynamics, electrochemistry, photocatalysis, thermocatalysis, and thermodynamics. It will also be of interest to those in the adjacent fields of materials science, energy, and environmental studies looking at aspects of hydrogen production
