dc.description.abstractHydrogen (H-2), a renewable energy source with a high energy density and a reputation for being environmentally benign, is being lauded for its potential in various future applications. In the present context, the catalytic methanolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) is of considerable importance due to its provision of a pathway for the efficient production of hydrogen gas (H-2). The main aim of this research attempt was to assess the viability of utilizing refuse defatted sumac seeds as an unusual precursor in microwave-assisted K2CO3 activation to produce a biocatalyst. The primary objective that motivated the synthesis of the biocatalyst was to facilitate the generation of hydrogen via the catalytic methanolysis of NaBH4. With the aim of developing a biocatalyst characterized by enhanced catalytic performance, we conducted an exhaustive investigation of a wide range of experimental parameters. The activation agent-to-sample ratio (IR), impregnation time, microwave power, and irradiation time were among these parameters. Significantly enhanced in catalytic activity, the biocatalyst produced under particular conditions achieved a peak hydrogen production efficiency of 10,941 mL min(- 1) g.cat(- 1). In particular, it was determined that the ideal conditions were as follows: 0.5 IR, 24 h of impregnation, 500 W of microwave power, and 10 min of irradiation. This novel strategy not only demonstrates the impressive potential of eco-friendly biocatalysts, but also positions them as a viable alternative material for the sustainable production of hydrogen via NaBH4 methanolysis. Three significant parameters contribute to the value and renewability of this study. The first is that waste is used as the primary material; the second is that the activator is less hazardous than other activators; and the third is that microwave activation is a green chemistry technique.
