Researchers led by engineers at The University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) have proposed a low-cost, cactus-inspired nickel-based material to help split water more cheaply and efficiently. Nickel, however, is not as quick and effective at breaking down water into hydrogen. who led the study. Every day, I passed this same plant.

The Sparc Green Hydrogen process combines concentrated solar (CS) with photocatalytic water splitting. The reactor is being designed to allow testing of new and improved photocatalysts as they are developed and also to slot into a linear Fresnel CS field. Providing valuable data and information for pilot plant reactor design.

Researchers at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology are developing a new method to dissociate water vapor into hydrogen gas by microwave-generated plasma (plasmolysis). In this study, a unique novel system is designed to decompose water vapor in a commercial modified 2.45 —Chehade et al. 2019.116831.

Researchers at Uppsala University have developed photocatalytic composite polymer nanoparticles (“polymer dots”) that show promising performance and stability for the production of hydrogen from water and sunlight. These polymer dots are designed to be both environmentally friendly and cost-effective. —Liu et al.

Scientists have long known that platinum is by far the best catalyst for splitting water molecules to produce hydrogen gas. A new study by Brown University researchers shows why the precious metal works so well—and it’s not the reason that’s been assumed. Lindgren et al. Surprisingly, we find that the G ? —Lindgren et al.
