  • Purdue researchers discover new process for hydrogen fuel cells.
    Researchers at Purdue University have discovered a new highly efficient technique for making hydrogen fuel cells for vehicles. Dubbed hydrothermolysis, the new process uses a high hydrogen-content powdered chemical called ammonia borane and combines two hydrogen generating processes -- hydrolysis and thermolysis -- to achieve conditions appropriate for use in vehicles. The technology has the potential to be <b>twice as effective</b> as current fuel cells at around half the temperature, and instead of requiring pressures of 5,000 psi like most hydrogen fuel cells today, this process requires a measly 200 psi....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/breakthrough-process-increases-efficiency-in-hydrogen-fuel-cell-cars/'>READ ARTICLE</a>
