Hydrogen from Biomass

  • Comments off

The price of hydrogen produced with sustainable alternative processes, such as electrolysis and water splitting using sunlight, still makes these technologies uncompetitive from an economic point of view. In the context of the European Union Green Deal and the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), which promote a sustainable energy transition, new technologies to produce […]

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 […]

Overdia

  • Comments off

Overdia is a free open source code aimed at the definition of diabatic electronic states and the parametrization of Linear Vibronic Coupling (LVC) Hamiltonians from Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory calculations. It can be adopted to describe molecular potential energy surfaces close to conical intersections but it also parameterizes generalized LVC models for  molecular dimers and […]
