New research shows that formic acid could be used as a safe, easy-to-transport source of hydrogen for fuel cells. Matthias Beller and his colleagues at the Leibniz Institute of Catalysis, in Rostock, ...

Hydrogen fuel cells have long been floated as a potential platform for zero-emission vehicles, but problems with efficiency and storage have put up some roadblocks. Rather than using hydrogen in its ...

Hydrogen stored in a chemical form as a liquid organic compound for on-demand in situ release, at room temperature and without CO contamination, seems to be a promising direction for mobile fuel cells ...

Far below our feet, a quiet chemical engine has been running for billions of years, turning rock and water into hydrogen. New research suggests that this hidden process has already generated enough ...
