The hybrid material effectively catalyzes the conversion of liquid water to hydrogen gas while remaining stable in an acidic environment. The students set out to identify plentiful and inexpensive sources of carbon and nitrogen, and test ways to combine them with a molybdenum salt. One key step is splitting water (water electrolysis).

Global Bioenergies, founded in 2008, has developed a synthetic isobutene pathway that, when implanted in a micro-organism, enables the organism to convert sugars (e.g., using just water, H 2 , CO 2 and sunlight. using just water, H 2 , CO 2 and sunlight. The process to convert isobutene to isooctane is well-established.

The catalyst can be immobilized on inexpensive carbon electrodes, such as those used in domestic Zn-carbon dry batteries, to generate H 2 from acid aqueous solutions. In addition to that, its reactivity is retained when immobilized on cheap carbon electrodes, which is of significant practical interest. 1 is obtained.

The researchers devised a one-pot synthesis method that is simple, cheap, scalable and uses only Earth-abundant elements (Al, Ti, O, H, C and S)—and therefore can be used for mass production. They converted the alumina layer to titania (TiO 2 ), a better conductor of electrons and lithium ions when it is very thin.
