Abstract

For the storage of hydrogen in the form of synthetic liquid fuels, the reversible catalytic hydrogenation of toluene, and the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 yielding MeOH, are investigated. Catalytic processes are important in electrochemistry and, in particular, in the realization of electrodes with high power densities for low-temperature polymer electrolyte fuel cells. As a third area where catalysis is assigned a crucial role within General Energy Research, the treatment of exhaust gases from combustion processes will be discussed.
