Sustainable method produces high-purity material for use in green hydrogen production

A group of researchers affiliated with the Center for Innovation in New Energies (CINE) has developed a method for purifying materials that is simple, economical and has a low environmental impact. The scientists have managed to improve the efficiency of a film that can be used in some green hydrogen production processes.

According to researchers, urea electrolysis is significantly more energy efficient than water electrolysis.

Eco-Friendly Technique Yields High-Purity Material for Green Hydrogen

A groundbreaking advancement in materials science has emerged from the laboratories of the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP) in Brazil, where a team of researchers affiliated with the Center for Innovation in New Energies (CINE) has developed a novel purification technique for mullite-type bismuth ferrite (Bi₂Fe₄O₉) thin films. This material, previously limited by the presence of secondary, unwanted phases such as bismuth oxide (Bi₂O₃), now…
