Cheaper Catalyst Generates Hydrogen In Commercial Devices
November 7, 2019 | Leave a Comment
Researchers at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University have shown for the first time that a cheap catalyst can split water and generate hydrogen gas for hours on end in the harsh environment of a commercial device. The electrolyzer technology, which is based on a polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM), has […]

Building Fuel Cells For a Fraction of Current Costs
January 23, 2018 | 4 Comments
University of California – Riverside (UCR) researchers have now described the development of an inexpensive, efficient catalyst material for a type of fuel cell called a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell. The new cell turns the chemical energy of hydrogen into electricity and is among the most promising fuel cell types to power cars and […]
