Abstract
Research of new, nanostructured ceria-based catalysts containing transition metal ions has revealed their excellent laboratory-scale performance in nearly all consecutive processes used in production of hydrogen from fossil fuels and renewable sources. This opens new possibilities for research in chemical reaction engineering. The aim of proposed project is to study kinetics and mechanism of catalyzed low-temperature water gas shift reaction, and, on the basis of obtained results, to explore experimentally and theoretically the possibility to use permselective catalytic membrane for the development of highly efficient, selective and compact reactor.
