Santa Ana, CA – February 14, 2007 – QuantumSphere, Inc., a leading manufacturer of nano metals and alloys for applications in portable power, renewable energy, electronics and other markets demanding advanced materials, announces the presentation of their sponsored hydrogen generation research. Robert Dopp of DoppStein Enterprises, Inc. will be presenting his research at the National Hydrogen Society meeting in San Antonio on March 22, 2007.
The presentation titled “Hydrogen Generation via Water Electrolysis Using Highly Efficient Nanometal Electrodes” covers recent research into the effect of the use of QSI-Nano® catalysts mixed with larger electrode components to give hydrogen generation efficiencies well above the DoE guidelines and well ahead of the literature to date. The presentation will cover the basics of water electrolysis and quickly move to data demonstrating the efficiencies of electrodes made from compressed nano catalysts. The most impressive data however is a new concept in electrode design which runs at very high rates and exceptional efficiencies. This will be a presentation well worth attending!
