In East Greensboro, N.C., Bishnu Bastakoti and his research team at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University have been working on addressing challenges related to greenhouse gas emissions by focusing on the production of green hydrogen. Unlike brown, gray, and blue hydrogen synthesis processes which contribute to the greenhouse effect, green hydrogen is produced from renewable sources like sunlight. To ensure reproducibility in hydrogen production, the team uses a solar simulator in the laboratory to control the intensity of light falling on the materials. Their unique design involves structuring iron titanate in a honeycomb form, which has proven to be highly effective in generating hydrogen. The mesoporous honeycomb iron titanate material developed by the team exhibited nearly double the hydrogen production compared to commercially available materials. The research findings have been published in the high-impact journal Small, recognizing the innovative approach as a hot topic in materials science and photocatalysis. Bastakoti emphasizes the importance of transitioning to green hydrogen, highlighting the need to move away from nonrenewable sources towards sustainable energy solutions. Despite the initial higher cost of green hydrogen production, the focus remains on the long-term benefits and sustainability for future generations.
