Hydrogen production via dehydrogenation of alcohols using ruthenium hexamethylenetetramine complex by Preeti Devi, Senthilkumar Muthaiah

“… Being a zero-carbon source, the hydrogen economy is considered to be better than the fuel economy as it produces only water vapor even after complete combustion. Still, it suffers from two major drawbacks, namely (1) the production of green hydrogen from sustainable resources and (2) the storage and transportation of hydrogen. …”
