#TITLE_ALTERNATIVE#

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. On...

One of the hydrogen production methods is methanol convertion by photocatalytic method. Syntheses of ZnO and CuO/ZnO oxide as catalyst for methanol conversion have been done with variation of CuO concentration to study the effect of CuO doping in ZnO photocatalytic activity. Syntheses of ZnO compounds are found to be maximum at pH 6.2. XRD study showed only ZnO peaks, means that CuO are distributed evenly on ZnO surface with amorf structure. The activity test showed that the 5%-CuO/ZnO has the highest photocatalytic activity in methanol conversion to hydrogen. text
