Researchers at the University of Houston have developed a catalyst—composed of easily available, low-cost materials and operating far more efficiently than previous catalyst—that can split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Our discovery may lead to a more economic approach for hydrogen production from water electrolysis.

The MTG process first dehydrates methanol to dimethylether (DME); an equilibrium mixture of methanol, DME and water is then converted to light olefins (C 2 -C 4 ). The shape-selective catalyst limits hydrocarbon synthesis to 10 carbons—i.e., gasoline range. Source: EMRE. Click to enlarge.

A new robust and highly active bifunctional catalyst developed by Rice University and the University of Houston splits water into hydrogen and oxygen without the need for expensive metals such as platinum. The lower you can get it, the closer you come to making it as efficient as possible for water splitting. Click to enlarge.
