Oak Ridge National Laboratory is also involved. The team is led by Barry Bruce, professor of biochemistry and cellular and molecular biology at UT Knoxville.
The researchers found a type of algae - thermophilic blue green algae, which is normally found in warmer waters, which could produce a steady stream of hydrogen when exposed to light, with a platinum catalyst. The reaction can work at 55 degrees C.
They also found that the temperature was 10 times more efficient as temperature increased.
