Metal foam for low-cost green hydrogen generation – pv magazine International

Researchers from Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah University of Science and Technology have presented the results of a low-cost method of generating carbon-free hydrogen. In other news, Norwegian fuel cell producer Nel ASA said it was ready to increase its electrolyzer production capacity to meet the European Union’s raised ambitions for renewable hydrogen, while oil giant Petronas Eneos announced plans to set up a hydrogen production plant in Indonesia. March 11, 2022 Sergio MatalucciResearchers from Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) have shown that a metal foam could underpin a low-cost method of generating carbon-free hydrogen. “Using a simple, rapid and scalable wet-chemical approach, the team grew two-dimensional cobalt iron hydroxide (CoFe-OH) nanosheets on nickel foam substrates, then deposited iron oxyhydroxide (FeOOH) nanoparticles…
