The quest for the "Holy Grail" of green hydrogen produced from sea water (without desalination), and powered by  wind and solar might be coming to an end.

A team of researchers from Penn State University (USA) are testing ways to use reverse osmosis membranes to help "split water" while avoiding the production of toxic chlorine gas, which degrades the equipment and seeps into the environment.

By focusing on the movement of the usually ignored smaller protons, researchers believe they have a viable way to deliver hydrogen from sea water, in an energy-saving way and without any nasty by-products.
