A stable ruthenium-hydride molecular complex promotes the sustainable production of green hydrogen from water electrolysis.

  • Comments off

Researchers from the Institute of Chemistry of Organometallic Compounds (ICCOM) of the National Research Council (CNR) have studied the production of green hydrogen from water in the laboratories of Sesto Fiorentino (FI), discovering that this can be promoted by a dinuclear organometallic complex of ruthenium in a polymer membrane electrolytic cell (PEM). The study was […]
