The reactor is a relatively tiny 2-foot-high (60-centimeter-high) apparatus of tubes and wires that creates hydrogen from corn-based ethanol. A fuel cell, which acts like a battery, then generates ...

Hydrogen is an important player in the game for decarbonizing energy production – it’s clean-burning, energy-dense, and when used in fuel cells the only by-product is water.

University Of Minnesota. "New Reactor Puts Hydrogen From Renewable Fuels Within Reach." ScienceDaily. ScienceDaily, 16 February 2004. <www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2004 / 02 / 040214081412.htm>.

The reactor also captures two waste products of the process that are usually just released – oxygen and heat. The oxygen could be handy for hospitals or industrial use, while the heat is passed ...

A group of researchers, led by Professors Takashi Hisatomi and Kazunari Domen, built a 100-square-meter reactor that uses sunlight and photocatalysts to split water into hydrogen and oxygen.

Solar reactor milestone The production of green hydrogen using CSIRO’s new beam-down solar reactor relies on a key material: doped ceria, a modified form of the naturally occurring mineral ceria.

The two-year-long project will examine how efficiently and economically Terrestial’s Integral Molten Salt Reactor (IMSR) power plant can produce industrial-scale hydrogen.

MINNEAPOLIS / ST. PAUL--The first reactor capable of producing hydrogen from a renewable fuel source--ethanol--efficiently enough to hold economic potential has been invented by University of ...

The biggest difference from existing reactors is the temperature of the reactor core. The new reactors have a core temperature of 1,000 degrees Celsius, compared to 300 degrees for current reactors.
