The British edition of Nature Communications, dedicated to such sciences like biology, physics and chemistry, reports that our civilization has come one step closer to replacing oil and gas fuel to hydrogen.
Recently, German scientists set a new record in the field production of artificial photosynthesis. German achievement is on the current moment is the most effective – they managed to achieve a ratio fourteen percent effective. According to assessment specialists, after a few years the replacement of gas and oil types fuel for hydrogen extracted from water will already be possible.
If European Scientists Increase Efficiency its photochemical cell by only one percent, reaching fifteen percent then light created on semiconductors generators will be much more profitable than fossil sources energy. Experts predict that a kilogram of hydrogen produced thus, will cost no more than four dollars.
This technology allows you to get hydrogen for forty hours without a significant reduction in output. Already in this or next year German scientists intend to improve their technology and get photochemical cells with a coefficient efficiency at fifteen or even seventeen percent.
