What is it about?
Development of novel catalysts for isopropanol dehydrogenation that has high catalytic activity under mild condition is strongly needed. Isopropanol dehydrogenation to acetone at low temperature is one of targets for isopropanol/acetone/hydrogen chemical heat pump (IAH-CHP) system

Why is it important?
Geopolymer studies are receiving noteworthily more attention as a viable alternative to organic polymers. Nevertheless, its structure network closely similar to zeolite framework which opens many opportunities for geopolymer to be used as amorphous materials in numerous areas such as ceramics, fireproof building materials, protective coatings, refractory adhesives, hybrid inorganic-organic composites and catalysts. This great interest is attributable to their exceptionally high thermal and chemical stability, excellent mechanical strength, and long-term durability.
Perspectives
An effective geopolymer supported nano bimetallic catalyst for isopropanol dehydrogenation was satisfactorily prepared by modified wet impregnation and reduction method. The catalyst shows an excellent catalytic performance in term of isopropanol conversion and acetone selectivity. Isopropanol dehydrogenation based on chemical heat pump system due to its excellent catalytic activity and recyclability under mild condition.
