It is technically possible to build an
electrocatalyst that avoids HER, but only by using gold, platinum or one of a couple of noble gases — an approach that is far too costly to carry out
on any scale.
In JCAP, Dr. Soriaga's present research is focused
on electrocatalytic reactions that underpin artificial photosynthesis; specifically, directed discovery of earth - abundant
electrocatalysts, development of advanced surface - science methods for the characterization of benchmarked catalysts, and exploration of structure - composition - activity relationships to guide the expansion of catalyst - discovery strategies.
Current research activities include the synthesis and characterization of carbon - dioxide reducing
electrocatalysts that are based
on Earth - abundant metals and studies of the reaction kinetics of carbon - dioxide reduction with active catalysts.
Scientists at Rice University and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory have predicted and created new two - dimensional
electrocatalysts — low - cost, layered transition - metal dichalcogenides (MX2) based
on molybdenum and tungsten — to extract hydrogen from water with high performance and low cost.
