These findings present a significant leap toward a cleaner, more efficient hydrogen economy. Traditionally, hydrogen is produced by heating natural gas (steam methane reforming), a process that operates at around 1000C and emits substantial carbon dioxide9 to 12 kilograms of CO2 for every kilogram of hydrogen.
