University of Oregon chemists have made substantial gains in enhancing the catalytic water dissociation reaction in electrochemical reactors, called bipolar membrane electrolyzers, to more efficiently ...

WASHINGTON, D.C., Jan. 2, 2018 -- Transition-metal catalysts, such as nickel and cobalt, are widely used in industry to produce hydrogen and other useful compounds from natural gas. Researchers ...

Scientists have caught fast-moving hydrogen atoms—the keys to countless biological and chemical reactions—in action. A team led by researchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator ...

Irradiating ammonia – which is made up of one nitrogen and three hydrogens – with ultraviolet light causes one hydrogen to dissociate from the ammonia. SLAC researchers used an ultrafast “electron ...
