Proton reduction for hydrogen production in artificial photosynthesis

Leave a Comment / PERSPECTIVE, Synthetic Biology / By WhatNext

Hydrogen production in artificial photosynthesis In recent years, many studies have reported various heterogeneous and homogeneous molecular systems for hydrogen evolution based on transition metal complexes. Many of these systems that sometimes exhibit high turnover (TON) and efficiency for hydrogen production only operate in organic or aqueous-organic media (5-50% H2O). Moreover, molecular systems working in pure …

State-specific analysis of demand response in the US

Leave a Comment / PERSPECTIVE, RECOMMENDED, Synthetic Biology / By WhatNext

Analysis of Demand Response – Electric utilities across the globe are in a constant process of matching the amount of energy generated and distributed with the energy consumption needs of their consumers. A very common occurrence is that sometimes the consumer demand for electricity surpasses the generation or available electrical capacity of the utilities. The …

Comparing the different interstitial hydrides for hydrogen storage in solid form

Leave a Comment / RECOMMENDED, Synthetic Biology / By WhatNext

Comparing the Different Interstitial Hydrides for Hydrogen Storage in Solid Form Hydrogen storage in Solid Form – Intermetallic hydrides consist of metals or alloy transition metals (also called hydrogen storage/absorbing metals) in which hydrogen occupies interstitial tetrahedral and/or octahedral sites via a metallic bond. The interstitial hydrates are alloys consisting of non-hydride forming metal …
