Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on finding a sustainable source of silica from biomass waste, specifically using rice husk to create an MCM-41 support for a Ni-Cu catalyst aimed at producing zero-emission hydrogen through methane (CH) pyrolysis.
  • The research showed that adding different amounts of copper (Cu) to the 30wt%Nickel (Ni)/R-MCM-41 catalyst improved its performance, with 3wt% Cu yielding the highest hydrogen production and stability.
  • Analysis techniques confirmed the formation of a Ni-Cu alloy, which enhanced the metal's surface availability and led to better methane cracking and increased carbon nanotube production.
