Chiba University researchers show the hydrogen evolution reaction activity of a GoldNickel/Gold electrocatalyst increases due to surface defects formed via Nickel dealloying. Gold (Au)-based electrocatalysts used for hydrogen production via water electrolysis exhibit high chemical stability but low hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity. Alloying them with nickel (Ni) can improve their HER activity. Now, a […]

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Illinois Institute of Technology research revealed a promising breakthrough in green energy. Their design is an electrolyzer device capable of converting carbon dioxide into propane in a manner that is both scalable and economically viable. The paper published in Nature Energy discusses the pioneering research. As the United States races toward its target of […]

University of Texas at El Paso researchers describe how they have achieved the highest level of energy storage – also known as capacitance – in a supercapacitor ever recorded. Years ago there was a series of supercapacitor claims that simply didn’t come to fruition. The new landmark study claims are quite worthwhile after a long […]

An Argonne National Laboratory team has developed a new catalyst composed of elements abundant in the Earth. It could make possible the low-cost and energy-efficient production of hydrogen for use in transportation and industrial applications. The reporting paper for the research has been published in Science. Hydrogen can power vehicles while emitting nothing but water. […]

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… University of Cambridge researchers have demonstrated how carbon dioxide can be captured from industrial processes – or even directly from the air – and transformed into clean, sustainable fuels using just the energy from the Sun. The report describing the research has been published in the journal Joule. The research team developed a solar-powered […]
