Revolutionary Solar Tech Converts Water to Green Hydrogen Fuel
TL;DR Summary
Researchers have developed a new solar hydrogen production technology by creating a supramolecular fluorophore nanocomposite that mimics natural photosynthesis. This system uses tannic acid-based metal-polyphenol polymers to enhance the stability and efficiency of photocatalytic reactions, achieving a hydrogen production rate 5.6 times higher than previous methods. The technology combines modified rhodamine dyes with bacteria to convert sunlight and ascorbic acid into hydrogen, offering a sustainable energy solution.
