AI Technical Summary
In existing hydrogen production and storage technologies, the catalyst has a small specific surface area, making it difficult for gas or liquid to enter the catalyst, resulting in low catalytic efficiency and fluctuations.
A highly permeable porous catalyst was prepared by mixing the catalyst with a dispersant, solvent, and binder, followed by ball milling, sponge adsorption, drying in a drying kiln, and then calcining at high temperature to form a honeycomb structure.
This increases the specific surface area of the catalyst, ensuring sufficient contact between the gas or liquid and the catalyst, thereby improving catalytic efficiency and stabilizing the reaction process.

Background Technology
[0002] With the development of society and economy, traditional fossil energy has been consumed in large quantities, resulting in massive carbon emissions and the greenhouse effect. How to reduce carbon emissions and achieve carbon neutrality has become a major challenge facing the world today. Hydrogen energy is an important clean energy source that meets the needs of sustainable development and environmental friendliness for human society, and its development has entered a period of rapid growth. However, there are still many constraints in the production, storage and transportation of hydrogen. Many laboratory products and technologies encounter process instability during industrialization, causing good technologies to be slow to be transformed.

Regarding hydrogen storage technology, CN 115318281 A discloses a supported dehydrogenation catalyst for heterocyclic compound dehydrogenation and its preparation method; CN 115337870 A discloses a conical rotating packed bed dehydrogenation reactor suitable for organic liquid hydrogen storage; CN 115254141 A discloses a catalyst with micro-precious metal loading, its preparation method, and its application; CN114700075 A discloses a preparation method of a multi-component catalyst, the multi-component catalyst, and its application; CN 114733530A discloses a hydrogenation catalyst for an organic liquid hydrogen storage support, its preparation method, and its application. The cracking agents or catalysts obtained by the above methods have the following disadvantages in industrial production: 1. The contact area between the gas or liquid and the catalyst is small; 2. Gases or liquids do not easily penetrate the interior of the catalyst; 3. The catalyst efficiency is not high, and the catalytic performance fluctuates. Summary of the Invention
