Catalyst Technology

Start with problem Fuel sell powered vehicles that run from hydrogen

How to produce the hydrogen cheaper & how to store it safely

Problem solver (Researchers)Form of new catalyst: Platinum nanoparticles

Problems:-Expensive -can be easily deactivated in the presence off low levels of carbon monoxide rendering the fuel cell inoperable

Resolution Catalyst using platinum nano particles deposited on a support material of titanium oxide.

Added tungsten to increase the electrical conductivity of the catalyst

Result: Platinum catalyst is 2,000 times more resistant to carbon monoxide

Alternative fossil fuel

Collecting matured oil palm leaves

Washing the leaves with the running tab water then shred the washed leaves into small pieces

Heat the shredded leaves with distilled water (ratio of leaves to distilled water, temperature and heating time will be investigated)

Filter the solution and collect the oil palm leaves extract for the synthesis (composition of the extract will be evaluated using GC-MS and FTIR)

Synthesis of Pt nanoparticles (reduction temperature and time will be investigated)

FTIR & XRD (identify the purity of the Pt

nanoparticles)

UV-vis (identify the extant of reaction, kinetic and yield)

SEM and TEM (identify the shape and the size of the

nanoparticles)
