Solar paint offers endless energy from water vapor Compound catalyses splitting of water molecules Date: June 14, 2017 Source: RMIT University Summary: ...

The so-called “photocatalytic paint” contains a moisture-absorbing compound (synthetic molybdenum sulphide) and a light-absorbing compound (titanium oxide), which work to absorb water vapor ...

He also claims the paint would be effective in a variety of climates, from damp environments to hot and dry ones near large bodies of water: "Any place that has water vapor in the air, even remote ...

The innovative paint draws moisture from the air and splits it into oxygen and hydrogen. As a result, hydrogen can be captured as a clean fuel source.

According to the researchers, the discovery brings a number of advantages. Remote areas far from large bodies of water could still produce fuel, so long as there was water vapour in the air. Daeneke’s ...

Could other countries facing water insecurity adopt the island’s centuries-old system of rainwater harvesting?
