Graphene isn’t easy to produce at scale. But making small batches of graphene is doable in a few ways. [Robert Murray-Smith] decided to try producing “flash graphene.” This requires a big capacitor ...

It can recycle waste into valuable graphene; it can regenerate graphite anodes in lithium-ion batteries; it can make low-cost hydrogen from plastic. It's the Flash Joule Heating process developed in ...

Researchers have used a low-emissions method to harvest hydrogen and graphene from waste plastics. They say it not only solves environmental problems like plastic pollution and greenhouse gas ...

Hydrogen could be a green fuel of the future, but at present it’s mainly made out of fossil fuels in a process that generates a lot of CO2. A new technique, however, generates hydrogen gas from ...

HOUSTON – (Sept. 14, 2023) – Hydrogen is viewed as a promising alternative to fossil fuel, but the methods used to make it either generate too much carbon dioxide or are too expensive. Rice University ...

(Nanowerk News) Since its initial discovery in 2004 at the University of Manchester, graphene has made a big splash in the scientific community. Its discoverers won a Nobel Prize in 2010 for ...

Harder than a diamond, stronger than steel, as flexible as rubber and lighter than aluminum. These are just some of the properties attributed to graphene. Although this material has sparked great ...

Graphene has the potential to spur advances in a variety of sectors, from transport to medicine to electronics. Unfortunately, the high cost of graphene production has slowed commercialization.
