Researchers at Korea University develop high-performance textile-based electrodes for watersplitting

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Korea University have developed high-performance, textile-based electrodes for watersplitting (WSE); the non-noblemetal-based electrodes can generate a large amount of hydrogen with low overpotentials and high operational stability. —Mo et al. doi: 10.1039/d2ee01510b.

Researchers develop earth-abundant photocatalyst for conversion of ammonia into hydrogen

Green Car Congress

and Princeton University’s Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment have created a scalable photocatalyst that can convert ammonia into hydrogen fuel. Liquid ammonia is easy to transport and packs a lot of energy, with one nitrogen and three hydrogen atoms per molecule. The research is published in Science.

Australian researchers develop new hybrid plasma electrocatalytic process to produce green ammonia

Green Car Congress

Chemical engineers at UNSW Sydney and University of Sydney have developed a hybrid plasma electrocatalytic process for the production of sustainable (“green”) ammonia. Dr Jalili and his colleagues devised proof-of-concept lab experiments that used plasma to convert air into NO x intermediaries: either NO 2 - (nitrite) or NO 3 - (nitrate).

Stanford researchers make ammonia from air and water microdroplets

Green Car Congress

Stanford researchers, with a colleague from King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, have developed a simple and environmentally sound way to make ammonia with tiny droplets of water and nitrogen from the air. Water microdroplets are the hydrogen source for N 2 in contact with Fe 3 O 4. The conversion rate reaches 32.9 ± 1.38
