The team of scientists in China developed a device able to split salt water for producing H2 directly.A Chinese research team has announced that they have successfully developed a device able to split salty seawater for direct hydrogen production.The new device is able to overcome the issues previously causing a barrier to seawater electrolysis.The device developed by the researchers is a membrane-based seawater electrolyzer. This device helps to address the corrosion and side-reaction problems that occur when trying to electrolyze seawater using traditional methods.The results of the research were published in the Nature journal, in which the team under Nanjing Tech University chemical engineering professor Zongping Shao stated that their device “ran for over 3,200 hours under practical application conditions without failure.”Currently, the majority of H2 is made using methods…
