Catalyst for decomposition of ammonia, and method for decomposition of ammonia

Abstract

A catalyst for decomposition of ammonia and a method for decomposition of ammonia using the catalyst. The catalyst includes a carrier and a catalytically active components supported on the carrier, the catalytically active components including i) ruthenium (Ru) as a first metal; ii) a second metal; and iii) a third metal, wherein each of the second metal and the third metal is independently one or more selected from the group consisting of lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), aluminum (Al), and zirconium (Zr), the amount of the first metal ruthenium is 0.1 to 1 part by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the total catalyst, the porosity is 30 to 60%, and the median value of pore diameter is 50 to 200 μm.
