Proof Of Concept For New Hydrogen Production And Storage

December 1, 2022 | Leave a Comment

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Osaka University researchers have demonstrated a proof-of-concept for a novel molecular hydrogen production method that bypasses the need for expensive purification steps. They developed a system where hydrogen is separated and stored in liquid organic hydrogen carriers by catalysis of triaryl boranes in one seamless process. The results of this work will help facilitate […]

New Low Cost Ruthenium Nickel Alloy Catalyst Splits Water

November 29, 2022 | Leave a Comment

Rice University engineers have developed a stable water-splitting catalyst for clean hydrogen generation that could replace expensive iridium catalysts. Creating a hydrogen economy is no small task, but Rice University engineers have discovered a method that could make oxygen evolution catalysis in acids, one of the most challenging topics in water electrolysis for producing clean […]

Catalyst Cuts The Energy Needed to Make Ammonia Fertilizer

November 10, 2022 | Leave a Comment

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Tokyo Institute of Technology researchers have developed a metal nitride catalyst containing an active metal (Ni) on a lanthanum nitride support that is stable in presence of moisture. The goal is to cut the energy requirements of the Haber-Bosch process, which converts nitrogen and hydrogen to ammonia. Plus, since the catalyst doesn’t contain ruthenium, […]

Plant Matter Lignin Catalyst Can Make Jet Fuel Blendstock

November 3, 2022 | Leave a Comment

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… National Renewable Energy Laboratory researchers report success in using lignin as a path toward a drop-in 100% sustainable aviation fuel. Lignin makes up the rigid parts of the cell walls of plants. Other parts of plants are used for biofuels, but lignin has been largely overlooked because of the difficulties in breaking it down […]
