Hydrogen generation using activated aluminum/water reaction

The effective parameters for the Al-water reaction are studied. Salts such as sodium chloride (NaCl), potassium chloride (KCl) and barium chloride (BaCl2) were added to Al particles and the mixture were alloyed via high-energy ball milling. It was observed that the reaction of Al/water is evolved and the reaction induction time declined significantly by the application of BaCl2 as new modifier in comparison with NaCl and KCl. The X-ray...
