Progress Made In Using Iron Rust to Split Water
November 13, 2019 | 1 Comment
Yale University researchers say rust has long been seen as a potentially attractive material for solar water splitting, a key process that plants employ in photosynthesis. The search for sustainable approaches to generating new fuels has brought scientists back to one of the most abundant materials on Earth – reddish iron oxide in the form […]

A Boston College team of researchers has achieved the first ‘unassisted’ solar water splitting using the abundant rust-like mineral hematite and silicon to capture and store solar energy into hydrogen gas. So far finding an efficient solar water splitting method to mine electron-rich hydrogen for clean power has been thwarted by the poor performance of […]
