Hydrogen is a promising future fuel—especially if produced from water—but the necessary noble metal catalysts are rare, expensive, and have insufficient reserves. But now, in a study recently published in Advanced Materials, researchers from the University of Tsukuba and collaborating partners have developed catalysts that can overcome the limitations of noble metals.
Hydrogen is a high-energy molecule that can be a renewable future fuel, as burning it only produces water. Unfortunately, most hydrogen is currently sourced from fossil fuel combustion. Hydrogen produced from water would undoubtedly…
