New super bacterium doubles hydrogen gas production

New super bacterium doubles hydrogen gas production Now, for the first time, researchers have studied a newly discovered bacterium that produces twice as much hydrogen gas as the bacteria currently used. The results show how, when and why the bacterium can perform its excellent work and increase the possibilities of competitive biological production of hydrogen gas.

A Virus That Might Make Hydrogen : Greentech Media

A Virus That Might Make Hydrogen : Greentech Media: "A team of scientists lead by material science professor Angela Belcher has genetically modified a virus that can exploit sunlight to split water into oxygen and hydrogen. If it works and can be commercialized, the process could help solve the vexing problem of energy storage and the equally vexing problem of producing hydrogen in a reasonable and cost-effective way."

"What you need to know about hydrogen and fuel cells before investing time or money in clean energy." on SMR

"What you need to know about hydrogen and fuel cells before investing time or money in clean energy." on SMR: "Every day, people are making decisions about clean energy technologies. Doesn’t it seem like individuals, companies, and elected officials and representatives are looking for a silver bullet solution that will improve the air, end oil dependence and create new jobs? The silver bullet is a blend of energy technologies, each with different strengths that meet different challenges. Hydrogen and fuel cell products offer strengths to meet many needs, including transportation, power and material handling—and we can show you why."
