He also suggests that air capture could contribute to de-carbonizing the transportation sector by permitting us to combine hydrogen produced
by water electrolysis with captured carbon dioxide to produce liquid fuels.

«Hydrogen (H2) produced from
water splitting
by an electrochemical process, called
water electrolysis, has been considered to be a clean and sustainable energy resource to replace fossil fuels and meet the rising global energy demand, since
water is both the sole starting material and byproduct when clean energy is produced
by converting H2 back to
water,» the researchers wrote.

water is the greenest way to convert electricity to chemical fuel,» said Junhua Song, a WSU Ph.D. student who synthesized the catalyst and performed most of the experimental work.
1) Alkaline
water electrolysis: In alkaline
electrolysis the membrane prevents the hydrogen and oxygen products from mixing, however commonly available membrane separators often become brittle and crack with low pH. The membranes developed at SNL are stable under basic environments and have been tested

by environmentally - friendly salt
electrolysis, according to international standards.
Operators can convert electrical energy into stored chemical energy in hydrogen
by using electricity for
electrolysis, which splits
water into oxygen and hydrogen.
Producing hydrogen and oxygen
by the
electrolysis of
water (the hydrogen could later be used to power clean fuel - cell vehicles, oxygen has many uses);
Hydrogen, which is the simplest form of energy carrier, can be generated renewably with solar energy through photoelectrochemical
water splitting or
by photovoltaic (PV)-- driven
electrolysis.
And with US electricity generation dominated
by coal, H2 from
electrolysis — cracking
water into its components using electricity — looked more like a way to shift, rather than reduce vehicle emissions.

water splitting
by photovoltaic -
electrolysis with a solar - to - hydrogen (STH) efficiency of more than 30 % — a new record.

water into oxygen and hydrogen
by electrolysis.
NaOH is made
by electrolysis of salt

Hydrogen can also be generated
by electrolysis of
water by using extra electricity generated
by wind and / or solar collection to be stored for burning in power plants when those collection systems have lulls especially for solar at night, of course.

Electrolysis, which uses electricity to break hydrogen away from oxygen in
water can be powered sustainably
by renewable energy.
