UNSW Sydney team develops inexpensive water-splitting catalyst using 2D MOF framework array

Green Car Congress

UNSW Sydney chemists have fabricated a new, inexpensive catalyst for water splitting based on an ultrathin nanosheet array of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on different substrates. Unexpectedly, the integrated MOF electrodes demonstrate superior performances towards OER, HER and overall water splitting. —Duan et al.

Researchers Demonstrate Potential for Co-Production of Hydrogen from Cellulosic Ethanol Byproducts Via Gasification in Supercritical Water

Green Car Congress

Concept for hydrogen gas coproduction from cellulosic ethanol byproduct streams. Researchers at Oregon State University have demonstrated the gasification of water-soluble biomass constituents in supercritical water in a microchannel reactor under isothermal, continuous flow condition at short residence times to produce a hydrogen-rich gas.

Virtual Reality Helps Students Improve Their Math Literacy

Cars That Think

In the United States, eighth graders scored an average of 271 out of 500 in math on last year’s National Assessment of Educational Progress , as highlighted in a New York Times article. One way teachers are trying to help students grasp difficult concepts is through virtual-reality technology. It’s the lowest level in decades.
