Hydrolysis of Hydrogen to Meet Revolutionary New Technologies
The study found a completely new technology for hydrogen production from hydrocracking, paving the way for the expansion of hydrogen as a clean green fuel. The domestic hydrogen fuel cell plate may usher in an outbreak.
According to Phys.org today, a research team at the Boulder School of the University of Colorado has discovered a brand new water splitting technology that can use sunlight energy to effectively break down water into hydrogen and oxygen.
The team has designed a solar system to focus sunlight through the array of light mirrors to a point on the top of a central tower up to several hundred feet.
The team leader Professor Alan Weimer said that the tower can collect 2500 degrees Fahrenheit (1350 degrees Celsius) of heat generated by the array of light mirrors, and then transfer it to a reactor containing metal oxides. When the metal oxide mixture is heated, oxygen atoms can be released.
The key difference between this process and traditional hydrogen production methods is that water is decomposed by performing two chemical reactions at the same temperature.
Weimer said: "Using sunlight to break down water is the Holy Grail to achieve a sustainable hydrogen economy."
