Embodiment Construction
[0044] With reference to the block scheme of FIG. 1, a process is described for the production of hydrogen according to one embodiment, useful such as fuel in a micro FC (Micro Fuel Cell) 1A, intended for the production of electric energy for a generic portable electronic device, not shown.
[0045] A continuous flow of an aqueous solution of sodium borohydride (NaBH4), stored at environmental temperature and pressure in a suitable tank 3, is supplied, by means of a micropump 2, to the reaction chamber of a microreactor 1.
[0046] Advantageously, for making this aqueous solution non-inflammable and stable in the air, it is to be buffered at a pH between 13 and 14, and preferably at PH 14 by an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH), at 4% by weight.
[0047] In the reaction chamber of said microreactor 1, the above aqueous, alkaline solution of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) comes into contact, for an appropriate and predetermined residence time, with a catalytic bed formed by a metal c...
