Abstract
A catalytically acting system of metal layers for the removal or elimination of hydrogen from a gas mixture, which also contains hydrogen and oxygen. The system of metal layers possesses a surface layer which faces the gas mixture, and which is constituted of a PdNiCu alloy and which acts as a catalyst during the oxidation of the hydrogen. The surface layer is connected with or bonded to a carrier consisting of a heat-conductive material.
Claims12
A catalyst comprising a system of metal layers for the removal of hydrogen from a gas mixture containing hydrogen and oxygen, at least one surface layer of said system facing the gas mixture, said surface layer being constituted of an alloy of PdNiCu;
- a carrier of a heat-conductive material bonded to the surface layer;
- and an intermediate layer selected from the group of materials consisting of V, Nb, Ta, Ti, and Zr being arranged intermediate the surface layer and the carrier.
