New Hybrid Catalyst Generates Hydrogen from Water More Efficiently
Ripping water apart into hydrogen and oxygen can form the basis of artificial photosynthetic devices. These devices potentially can power homes and businesses, and...
Student-Built Reactor Produces Hydrogen From Sunlight, Zinc Oxide and Water
A new way to have sunlight produce hydrogen has been perfected in a University of Delaware lab. The inventor, Erik Koepf, has designed a...
Existing Natural Gas Pipelines Could Carry Hydrogen, Too
According to the US Department of Energy, natural gas pipelines are an ideal way to distribute natural gas, even blended with hydrogen. Actually, blending...
Hydrogen from Salt Water: an Accidental Discovery
63-year-old John Kanzius was looking to destroy cancer cells when he stumbled upon an effect that split salt water and released oxygen and hydrogen.
His invention...
Crude Glycerin from Biofuel Production has Great Unexpected Uses
Glycerin in its pure form is used to manufacture soap, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and many other products, but the crude glycerin is an impure form that is unsuitable for these products. But what if we could use it putting back biodiesel in its correct position of green alternative power source?
World's First Aircraft Powered Entirely by Hydrogen Fuel Cells
A team of German engineers has unveiled the world's first aircraft powered entirely by hydrogen fuel cells.
Experiment Shows Desalination Plants Could Produce Hydrogen
As the world's potable water resources thin each year, scientists strive to decypher ways to use the immense amounts of water that abound the oceans and seas, and to make them drinkable. All that desalination process consumes energy resources, and that makes water more expensive to produce and drink in some parts of the world.
Hydrogen Fuel Generation – Breakthrough Catalyst Investigated in India
Hydrogen fuel used in hydrogen fuel cells, as a replacement for natural gas, or even in an internal combustion engine, burns clean and emits...
New and Cheap Way to Make Graphene for Hydrogen Storage
A team of UCLA scientists (Yang Yang and Richard Kaner), located at the California NanoSystems Institute (CNSI), have discovered a technology of making graphene sheets in big quantities and at a low price. Graphene is being used to soak up hydrogen and store it efficiently.
Is This The End of The Line for Toyota RAV4 EV?
Toyota’s stance on electric vehicles seems to be clear, so the end of the Toyota RAV4 EV doesn’t really come as a shock.
Instead, Toyota...
