Adopting sustainable energy is crucial for achieving a better future—one that optimizes resource utilization and minimizes the negative impacts of fossil fuel consumption. Green hydrogen, a clean energy source that only emits water vapor as a byproduct, is a promising alternative produced through sustainable energy. The production process involves electrolysis, which separates hydrogen (H2) and […]

Numerous material characteristics can be used to form a catalyst, from nickel and gold to rhodium and copper. Each has properties that can affect the catalyst’s overall activity, stability, and selectivity. One catalyst material that draws attention is platinum. Utilized in catalytic converters and for the creation of hydrogen, platinum catalysts deliver excellent catalytic activity.

Green electrolysis has emerged as a pivotal technology in pursuing sustainable energy solutions. The catalysts that drive reactions are central to this process – particularly in water splitting. Ruthenium-based catalysts are among the many that show great promise, primarily due to their high activity. But, their poor stability limits the practical applicability of ruthenium-based catalysts.

Green hydrogen production via electrolysis has emerged as a key technology in the search for sustainable energy solutions. It involves splitting water into its constituents, hydrogen and oxygen. Traditional electrolyzers rely on precious metal catalysts like platinum and iridium. Although both are effective, they are also costly and scarce. The enormous potential of green hydrogen

By producing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, ultimately totaling 34-36.8 billion tonnes of CO2 every year, the planet is being endangered. About 45% of this CO2 is from fossil fuels, with estimates being made that fossil fuels have been responsible for at least 67% of the Earth’s rise in temperature.  One solution to reduce emissions is

The amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) within the atmosphere is affecting the planet. It has been estimated that from the year 1751, the amount of CO2 globally produced has been above 1.5 trillion tonnes. Limiting the amount of greenhouse gas that is created, for instance from fossil fuels, must be undertaken to protect the earth.

Biomimicry is a revolutionary concept referring to the imitation of natural processes in artificial settings. It is a hallmark of sustainable research and development (R&D), contributing to circular and regenerative engineering in a host of applications. The concept is simple: We emulate natural processes to resolve critical challenges facing mankind today. Although this approach dovetails
