Research Abstract |
We have developed a new kinetic modeling method of reaction mechanism on inhomogeneous surface at high temperature based on an original 'super-adsorbate' concept. To achieve the development, we have 1) developed adsorption modeling technique including local surface morphology, 2) used highly-accurate statistic thermodynamics with frequency analyses, and 3) verified the developed method by applying to catalytic hydrogen production. Using the hydrogen production mechanism constructed with our modeling method, we also discussed carbon deposition mechanism on nickel catalysts at industrial operating condition.
