In contrast, previously reported ferrite materials typically exhibit 20% or lower steam to hydrogen conversion. Their work indicates that a synergistic effect of reduced LSF and metallic iron phases is attributable to the exceptional steam conversion. To further enhance this effect, they proposed a layered reverse-flow reactor concept.
