Now Splitting Water For Hydrogen With An Electrocatalyst

August 5, 2021 | Leave a Comment

Scientists at Friedrich-Schiller-Universitaet Jena have succeeded in splitting water using an electrocatalyst instead of electrolysis. The way in which a compound inspired by nature produces hydrogen has now been described in detail by an international research team from the University of Jena, Germany and the University of Milan-Bicocca, Italy. These findings are the foundation for […]

A Step Closer To Enzymes Producing Hydrogen

July 26, 2017 | Leave a Comment

Ruhr-University Bochum researchers have clarified the crucial catalytic step in the production of hydrogen by enzymes. The enzymes, called [FeFe]-hydrogenases, efficiently turn electrons and protons into hydrogen. Therefore they are candidates for the biotechnological production of the potential energy source. Professor Thomas Happe, one of the authors of the study said, “In order to produce […]
