Sentences with phrase «efficient hydrogen molecules»

This technology would enable the conversion of conventional hydrocarbons into highly - efficient hydrogen molecules underneath the hood for use in a fuel cell that would emit only water vapor from the tailpipe.

Not exact matches

The OLGA rinses and scrubs carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and carbon monoxide molecules in order to produce syngas and this innovation makes the conversion from waste to energy efficient and accessible.

VHTR plants could even produce hydrogen for fuel using high - temperature steam electrolysis, which breaks apart the bonds of water molecules; this process is 50 percent more energy - efficient than existing hydrogen production methods.

Now researchers have developed the most efficient method yet for generating hydrogen: a new photocatalyst that uses light to break apart water molecules.

The team thinks one reason their technique is so efficient is that a chemical reaction between the hydrogen plasma and air molecules in the chamber's atmosphere generates cyano radicals — carbon - nitrogen molecules that have been stripped of their electrons.

While tearing apart even a small molecule like hydrogen may seem difficult enough, controlling the oxidation to create an energy - efficient reaction is even more challenging.
