Abstract
A feasible catalytic reactor for oxygen evolution has been proposed, which could complement the current methods of O2 evolution efficiently and ensure the availability of pure oxygen on a wider scale. Several chemicals, such as NaI, MnO2, NiSO4, etc. can generally decompose hydrogen peroxide by producing oxygen as a product via chemical reactions. Meanwhile, the Pt-Pd catalyst efficiently catalyzes hydrogen peroxide decomposition reactions and generates pure oxygen without any unfriendly species. The excellence of the bi-metallic catalyst has been validated by the evaluation of turnover number (TON) and turnover frequency (TOF). Implementing the knowledge of chemical reactions and heterogenous catalysis, the proposed catalytic reactor could be helpful for generating a continuous flow of oxygen. Surely, the oxygen produced in this process is higher in amount compared to the oxygen present in the atmosphere at ambient conditions which might facilitate the breathing support for critically ill patients.
