When water is split electrolytically, the result is typically hydrogen -- and 'useless' oxygen. Instead of oxygen, you can also produce hydrogen peroxide, which is required for many branches of ...

An international research team has discovered a new class of kinetically stable ‘core and shell Sn(II)-perovskite’ oxide solar material, which in the future, could be a potential catalyst for the ...

A light-responsive material improves hydrogen production by combining porous frameworks with metal particles to guide energy flow more efficiently. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Sunlight can split water into ...

Combining the adsorption properties of solids with the dissolution capabilities of liquids, researchers have created a versatile and efficient material for improving oxygen separation in gases. In ...

Hydrogen is a source of clean energy. When used in fuel cells, it combines with oxygen to produce electricity, and the only chemical by-product is water. To produce the environmentally friendly fuel, ...

Scientists in Japan have demonstrated a new method to create hydrogen fuel without emitting greenhouse gases. But key steps to improve its efficiency remain for it to be commercially viable. When you ...

In newly published study, CU Boulder chemist Wei Zhang details a new porous material that is less expensive and more sustainable For a broad range of industries, separating gases is an important part ...

Due to its high availability, water is considered the most useful starting material for hydrogen production. Ideally, the conversion of water into hydrogen produces a second useful substance: hydrogen ...
