The results showed that the HPR value for Co-B@GO catalyst was 2299.81 mL*gcat-1 min-1, which was approximately 2.3 times higher than that of the Co-B catalyst (1012.71 mLgcat-1 *min-1). The activation energy of Co-B@GO was also calculated to be 21.62 kJ/mol, lower than some reported values in the literature. This demonstrates the potential of Co-B@GO as a cost-effective and efficient catalyst for hydrogen production from alkali hydrides. The results of this study provide novel insights into the optimization of hydrogen production processes using supported metal catalysts.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessHydrogen productionAlkali hydridesSupported metal catalystsCo-B@GOActivation energyArticle29519751982Q3WOS:000949777800002Q12-s2.0-8514982949810.1007/s11581-023-04962-8
