Abstract
Main catalytic processes and types of fuel for the production of hydrogen for low-temperature fuel elements with simultaneous carbon dioxide removal from the reaction medium are described. Types of adsorption reactors used for absorption and catalytic conversion (ACC) with pressure or temperature swinging, as well as reactors with membrane separation of hydrogen are considered. Descriptions are presented for novel regenerative membrane systems such as adsorbent-membrane reactor and space life support systems. Prospects for the use of ACC in hydrogen power engineering are evaluated.
