Oil companies are going to hate this world-saving hydrogen technology
1 day ago

Scientists at Virginia Tech have developed a way to extract large amounts of hydrogen from plants using a combination of enzymes, in a breakthrough that could forever end the planet's addiction to oil. Their new method harnesses hydrogen from xylose, a simple sugar available in abundance in plants. The technology releases barely any greenhouse gases and requires no metals. It's also supercheap, making it an easily attainable, realistic, environmentally friendly fuel alternative. "Our new process could help end our dependence on fossil fuels," said research leader Y.H. Percival Zhang. "We think this discovery is a game changer." The revolutionary product could hit the market within three years. [Source]
