Study shows a much cheaper catalyst can generate hydrogen in a commercial electrolyzer

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University have shown for the first time that a low-cost, non-precious metal cobalt phosphide (CoP) catalyst catalyst can split water and generate hydrogen gas for hours on end in the harsh environment of a commercial device.

First, scalability: AQDS contains only the Earth-abundant atoms carbon, sulphur, hydrogen and oxygen, and can be inexpensively manufactured on large scales. These features lower the capital cost of storage chemicals per kilowatt hour, which sets a floor on the ultimate system cost per kilowatt hour at any scale.

DOE to award funding to 10 projects at 9 universities for high-hydrogen-fueled turbine technology development

Green Car Congress

The projects will develop technologies for use in a new generation of advanced turbines that operate using coal-derived synthesis gas (syngas) and high hydrogen content (HHC) fuels. Physics-based design guides that can be used by the gas turbine industry to predict (and mitigate) flame holding tendencies will be developed.
