Breakthrough in Hydrogen Catalyst
Hydrogen is emerging as a clean fuel to power factories, vehicles, and cities without carbon emissions.
Producing hydrogen sustainably has faced a hurdle due to the high cost and scarcity of iridium.
Researchers at Rice University have developed a new catalyst that reduces iridium use by 80% in water electrolyzers.
This breakthrough could make green hydrogen more affordable and scalable.
Their findings were published in Nature Nanotechnology and show top industrial performance for over 1,500 hours.
Hydrogen is a powerful clean fuel that can power factories, vehicles, and even cities without producing carbon emissions.
Author's summary: Engineers reduce iridium use by 80% in hydrogen catalyst.
