🔥 Revolution in the oil and gas industry.

🔑 #hydrogen #CleanEnergy #Innovation #Sustainability #Technology #BP #Repsol #CEPSA

🌍 Since oil production began more than 160 years ago, gas flaring, the process of burning natural gas associated with oil production, has been a source of air pollution. Currently, about 148 billion cubic meters of gas is flared worldwide, an amount that could supply all of sub-Saharan Africa, according to the World Bank.

🚀 Revolution in hydrogen production!

🔑 #GreenHydrogen #CleanEnergy #Innovation #SustainableTechnology #Research.

🌊 A new water splitting method promises faster, greener hydrogen production. The research, published in Nature Nanotechnology, is a breakthrough in clean energy technology. Normally, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) requires expensive noble metal catalysts, such as iridium, which makes the process costly and relies on scarce resources. In addition, the reaction needs additional energy known as overpotential, which increases the energy demand.

🧪 To address these limitations, Professor Ciucci’s team designed an innovative solution. They used atomically dispersed iridium together with dimethylimidazole and cobalt iron hydroxide. The unique arrangement of these components, in particular their geometric out-of-plane orientation, optimizes the yield and efficiency of the reaction. This new approach not only significantly increases OER activity, but also reduces the overpotential, decreasing energy use.

🌟 Longer lasting and more sustainable green hydrogen production 🌍

🔍 #GreenHydrogen #RyuheiNakamura #CSRSJapan #NatureCatalysis #ManganeseOxides

🚀 Researchers led by Ryuhei Nakamura at the RIKEN Centre for Sustainable Resource Science (CSRS) in Japan have revolutionised the extraction of hydrogen from water using an environmentally friendly and sustainable method. Using a custom-made catalyst for the chemical reaction, published in Nature Catalysis, they have manipulated the 3D structure of the catalyst, which has improved its stability and increased its lifetime by almost 4,000%. 🌱

🔧 The new catalyst is a form of manganese oxide (MnO2). The key finding was that the stability of the reaction could be increased by more than 40 times by modifying the lattice structure of the catalyst. The oxygen in the 3D lattice structure of manganese oxide comes in two configurations, planar and pyramidal. The planar version forms stronger bonds with manganese, and the researchers found that increasing the amount of planar oxygen in the lattice significantly improved catalytic stability. 🧪

🔬 They tested four different manganese oxides, which varied in the percentage of planar oxygen. By using the version with the highest achievable percentage, 94%, the critical oxygen evolution reaction could be maintained in acid for one month at 1000 mA/cm2. The total amount of charge transferred in this case was 100 times greater than any observed in previous studies. 💡
