Abstract
Catalysis of decomposition of dilute N, N'-dimethylformamide was explored. Among the catalysts investigated, Pt displayed the highest activity at low temperatures (~200 °C) and DMF conversion was promoted by H2 addition to the feed. As the Pt support material, H-ZSM-5 exhibited the best performance at around 200 °C in terms of harmless decomposition.
