SYNTHESIS OF CUO/ZNO PHOTOCATALYST FOR METHANOL CONVERSION TO HYDROGEN)

SYNTHESIS OF CUO/ZNO PHOTOCATALYST FOR METHANOL CONVERSION TO HYDROGEN)

Petroleum oil reserve is decreasing rapidly while the need of gasoline and the other fuel are increasing. Therefore, we need alternative energy resources and one of the alternatives is hydrogen, which can be used in fuel cell to generate energy. The problem is how to produce hydrogen efficiently....
