Sentence examples for water splitter from inspiring English sources
Water Splitter: Daniel Nocera watches an apparatus that makes hydrogen and oxygen from water.
"But our single-catalyst water splitter operates efficiently in one electrolyte with a uniform pH". "We built a conventional water splitter with two benchmark catalysts, one platinum and one iridium," Wang said.
But scientists have yet to develop an affordable, active water splitter with catalysts capable of working at industrial scales.
That goal is achievable based on my most recent results" The researchers also plan to develop a water splitter than runs on electricity produced by solar energy.
"Our water splitter is unique because we only use one catalyst, nickel-iron oxide, for both electrodes," said graduate student Haotian Wang, lead author of the study.
But in 2014, Stanford chemist Hongjie Dai developed a water splitter made of inexpensive nickel and iron that runs on an ordinary 1.5-volt battery.
