AI Dramatically Accelerates Search for Cheaper, Green Hydrogen Catalysts
-
AI technique can rapidly identify high-performance, cheaper catalysts for green hydrogen production without scarce platinum-group elements.
-
New catalysts contain abundant elements like manganese, iron, nickel, zinc, and silver instead.
-
Demonstrates AI's power to accelerate materials discovery, reducing research from years to months.
-
AI evaluated 3,000 materials in a month, estimated to take almost 6 years manually.
-
New technique expands limits of human intelligence to expedite development of carbon neutrality solutions.
