A catalyst material used in PEMWE to facilitate the water-splitting reaction. The University of Adelaide team enhanced its efficiency using a lattice-water-assisted mechanism.

Traditional ancillary device used to convert methane and water into hydrogen fuel for conventional fuel cells. The new Georgia Tech fuel cell eliminates the need for this equipment.

A newly discovered mechanism that enhances the performance of iridium oxide catalysts by arranging water molecules in a specific pattern.

Research project at the University of Adelaide focused on developing high-efficiency iridium oxide catalysts for proton exchange membrane water electrolysis using a lattice-water-assisted mechanism.

Development of a novel methane fuel cell with a new catalyst that operates at lower temperatures (approximately 500°C) and generates hydrogen directly from methane without requiring a steam reformer.

A fuel cell device approximately the size of a shoebox that runs on methane (natural gas) at approximately 500°C, generating electricity for distributed power generation in homes and businesses.
