The SOLHYDROMICS project focuses on developing an artificial device that efficiently converts sunlight into hydrogen fuel through water splitting. It combines expertise from various scientific fields to create a prototype that utilizes Photosystem II and hydrogenase to produce hydrogen at ambient conditions.
Leaves can split water into oxygen and hydrogen at ambient conditions exploiting sun light.
Prof.
James Barber, one of the key players of SOLHYDROMICS, was the recipient of the international Italgas Prize in 2005 for his studies on Photosystem II (PSII), the enzyme that governs this process.
In photosynthesis, H2 is used to reduce CO2 and give rise to the various organic compounds needed by the organisms or even oily compounds which can be used as fuels.
However, a specific enzyme, hydrogenase,…
