First, I want to stress that I'm a Policy Wonk turned Cybersecurity practitioner. Though I have a STEM education, I haven't touched chemistry or physics in almost a decade.
That said, this paper does look promising and it kind of reminds me of the heavy water electrolysis process used in Nuclear Energy.
Using saltwater instead of fresh+distilled water would be great, though I'm curious about the cost of productionizing this, as the kind of cost and energy outlay needed for this at scale might not be efficient.
That said, I am not a ChemE or Physicist so I could be wrong
> Seems green hydrogen is the ultimate strategy.
Yep, but that will take time to build, hence the idea to use brown hydrogen in the meantime.
