Liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs), generally possessing a hydrogen storage capacity of 6-8 wt%, can store a large volume of hydrogen for an extended period at ambient temperature and pressure. LOHCs are also highly compatible with conventional petroleum production and transport infrastructure. The proper selection among strong LOHC candidates is of paramount importance; hence, benchmarking studies are required for a fair comparison. Herein, the dehydrogenation characteristics of different homocyclic (CxHy-) LOHCs are studied in a high-throughput screening system with continuous fixed-bed reactors. Four homocyclic LOHCs, including methylcyclohexane, hydrogenated biphenyl-based eutectic mixtures, perhydromonobenzyltoluene, and perhydro-dibenzyltoluene, are dehydrogenated using a 0.5 wt% Pt/Al2O3 heterogeneous catalyst under the identical test protocol for comparative analysis. We further discuss post-mortem analyses on the used catalyst, physicochemical properties of LOHCs, energy analysis, and economic assessment of a maritime transport scenario for each LOHC, suggesting a future strategy to promote the practical use of homocyclic LOHCs.
