London’s Hydrogen Fuel Network Ahead of Its Time
London is raising the alternative energy stakes with its now fully integrated hydrogen fuel network with the introduction of a 700 bar delivery system....
Professor Korakianitis Doubts Japanese Water Car Claims
Watch the video first, and then read the article. It may be better that way. Some things must be stood up for, because this is our only way of saving the whole world from petrol dependence.
Dealloying Process Creates More Efficient and Cheaper Platinum for Fuel Cells
Fuel cells are usually expensive because they use platinum as a catalyst. To make them more appealing to the market, researchers from the DOE's National Accelerator Laboratory and the University of Houston, have created a new type of platinum catalyst, reducing the use of the pure metal down to 80 or even 70 percent, thus reducing the overall cost.
Breakthrough Discovery for Stationary Industrial Fuel Cells – Faster Startups
In their search to make better fuel cells, a research team from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in collaboration with the University of Liverpool, has discovered a new structure that moves oxygen ions through the cell at substantially lower temperatures than previously thought possible.
Solar Supercapacitor Generates Both Electricity and Hydrogen
Hydrogen is a much cleaner option than other renewable energy sources, only if not derived from methane that involves carbon dioxide emission.
Another limitation of...
How to Make Hydrogen from Water and Slag: Watch Tata Steel
Have you ever imagined you could get energy from melted steel? Probably not. The engineers from Tata Steel (a sister of Tata Motors) in India have obtained hydrogen from pouring water on melted steel at 1600°C.
New Regulation in Japan Advancing Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles
While hydrogen fuel cell vehicles and infrastructure seem to be an oddity outside Japan, the Japan Ministry of Economy is working hard to improve...
Photocatalyst Used For Hydrogen Generation Awarded by University of Queensland
This year's UQ Foundation Research Excellence Award, consisting in $85,000 UQ, was won by Dr Yong Wang, from UQ's School of Mechanical and Mining Engineering. Dr Wang will dedicate his research to develop powerful photocatalysts that increase the efficiency of hydrogen production.
Daimler Partners Ford and Nissan to Develop Hydrogen Vehicles
Hydrogen vehicles are more than just a dream that won't die, but are getting closer to production than ever before. Hydrogen just could be...
Genetic Engineering Increases Hydrogen Yield from Biomass, Virginia Tech
Hydrogen itself is a clean fuel and can be used in fuel cells to generate electricity or even burned in traditional internal combustion engines...
