+ Sicification-induced Green Algae Aggregates Generate Hydrogen [11-05-2015] (Zhejiang University)

(Source: Zhejiang University) Nov. 5, 2015 Scientists work collaboratively to add a film of silicon dioxide to the cells of green algae, thus achieving sustainable photobiological hydrogen (H2) production even under natural aerobic conditions. It marks a major breakthrough and thus opens up a novel approach in photobiological H2 production. Participants in this research include Assoc. Prof. Xu Xurong of the Qiushi Academy for Advanced Studies, Zhejiang University, Prof. Tang Ruikang of the Department of Chemistry,...
