| Research Abstract |
The objective of this study is establishment of high efficient hydrogen production by quantum cavity effect of thermal radiation. Thermal radiation is resonated at microcavity in porous media and reforming reaction rate is improved by non-equilibrium state by resonated radiation. In order to develop well-controlled microstructure, colloid crystal template method and TiO2 wetting methods were compared. As a result, pore size control was achieved and suitable microstructures were developed with enough strength. Furthermore, steam-reforming experiments were conducted with developed microstructure.
