Perovskite catalysts for hydrogen production from hydrogen sulfide

Hydrogen production via catalytic thermal decomposition of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) was studied experimentally by synthesizing, characterizing and testing perovskite type catalysts; A(x)A'(1-x)ByB'O-(1-y)(3). In the formulation, A and A' represented La and Sr respectively, B was chosen as Cr, and B' was either Co or Mo or V. The subscript x of the perovskite structure was 0.9 and y values were 1, 0.75, 0.5 and 0.25.
