Improving water splitting efficiency by hydrogen-bond disruption

Description

Green hydrogen produced from water splitting using renewable electricity will play an important role in the energy transition. Currently, green hydrogen is far more expensive than grey hydrogen produced from fossil fuels. The high cost is related to the high energy requirement for splitting relatively stable water molecules. Here, we hypothesize that chaotropic agents, which are molecules that destabilize the hydrogen bond network of water, can potentially improve the water splitting efficiency and lower the cost of green hydrogen. In this proposal, the researchers will investigate the effect of hydrogen-bond disruption on water splitting efficiency.
