Researchers at the University of Adelaide have developed electrodes enabling direct electrolysis of seawater. Chemical processes generally require high-purity feedstocks and the production of hydrogen by electrolysis is no exception, usually requiring purified water to avoid side reactions and a decline in performance. Approaches that allow the use of more abundant resources are always welcome developments, and there are few more abundant than seawater!
Researchers have successfully split seawater without pre-treatment to produce green hydrogen"
