the addition of potassium, regardless of the addition sequence does not have benefit on hydrogen production activity. The work confirms the Pt-CeO2 interaction plays the critical role in the hydrogen production from bio-alcohols and provides us insight to develop novel catalytic materials for hydrogen production from biomass resources.
