The sodium hydroxide allowed the water and aluminum to react and produce hydrogen gas until the trucks exploded. Fortunately, no one was hurt, as people noticed the smoking trucks and the area was ...

Something of a Holy Grail among engineers with an interest in a low-carbon future is the idea of replacing fossil fuel gasses with hydrogen. There are various schemes, but they all suffer from the … ...

A team at MIT led by [Professor Douglas Hart] has discovered a new, potentially revelatory method for the generation of hydrogen. Using seawater, pure aluminum, and components from coffee grounds, … ...

Sodium hydroxide is added to a cylinder of aluminum nitrate, precipitating out aluminum hydroxide. When additional base is added, the precipitate dissolves. The reactions can then be reversed with the ...

The first step in creating fuel for the dAlh2Orean involves combining waste aluminum with a sodium hydroxide catalyst. The reaction produces hydrogen, which is passed through a vinegar and water ...

Tabular aluminum oxide is recrystallised or sintered α-alumina, so called because its morphology consists of large, 50-500 μm, flat tablet-shaped crystals of corundum. It is produced by pelletising, ...
