With in-depth coverage of three key topics, the book discusses green hydrogen technologies, solid hydrogen storage, and hydrogen energy applications.
The book begins with a deep dive into photoelectrochemical water splitting, examining different catalysts, such as perovskite-based, phosphorene-based, polymer-based, transition metal-based single atom, blue-titania, carbon-based, Mxene and semiconductor-based catalysts. Subsequent chapters
analyze hydrogen production techniques, including electrolysis, photobiological, thermochemical, and biomass gasification methods. After reviewing key hydrogen storage technologies, the book concludes
with a summary of the applications of hydrogen in various industry sectors.
This book is an essential resource for students, researchers, and engineers interested in renewable energy, hydrogen production, and energy storage.
