Abstract: A process for the production of hydrogen for micro fuel cells is described, comprising the successive steps of:
- continuously supplying a catalytic bed (14) with an aqueous solution of Sodium Borohydride, the catalytic bed being made of at least one metal chosen among Cobalt, Nickel, Platinum, Ruthenium with obtainment of hydrogen and of a by-product comprising Sodium metaborate,
- continuously recovering the hydrogen thus obtained and
- supplying, with said hydrogen as it is as obtained, a micro fuel cell which provides its transformation into electric energy.
An apparatus is also described for the actuation of the above described process.
