Abstract
Water is a potential green source for the generation of clean elemental hydrogen without contaminants. One of the most convenient methods for hydrogen generation is based on the oxidation of different metals by water. The inspection of the catalytic activity toward hydrogen formation from water performed in this study was carried out using four different metals, namely, zinc, magnesium, iron, and manganese. The process is catalyzed by in situ-generated nickel nanoparticles. The zinc–water system was found to be the most effective and exhibited 94% conversion in 4 h. The solid phase in the latter system was characterized by PXRD and SEM techniques. Several blank tests provided a fundamental understanding of the role of each constituent within the system, and a molecular mechanism for the catalytic cycle was proposed.
