Herein, we introduce a novel material of flowerlike mesoporous CeO2 microspheres with nanointerspace, which was a kind of multifunctional material for both clean and renewable energy technologies. Catalyst of nickle oxide based on flowerlike cerium microspheres with high dispersion was made to achieve simultaneous dehydrogenation of ethanol and water molecules on multiactive sites. This special morphology catalyst represented novel stability more than 2000 h for hydrogen production at low temperature ethanol steam reforming. And, the molecules of poisonous volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as benzene, HCN and so on could be adsorped chemically by this CeO2 microspheres based materials easily at room temperature. And, carbon monoxide could be converted to carbon dioxide lower than 100 degrees C by this CeO2 microspheres based materials, without rare metals.
