Hello limitless power from air — scientists discover enzyme that can turn hydrogen into electricity

Scientists from the Monash University's Biomedicine Discovery Institute in Australia have extracted an enzyme that can turn hydrogen into electricity, paving the way for a possible source of unlimited clean energy.

Their discovery was recently published in the Nature journal and reported by Phys.org.

Headline is clickbait/misleading. Hydrogen gas is not found naturally in air, water or soil, except as part of unreactive chemical compounds.

Thank goodness, we can finally say goodbye to Eksdom !

Had a quick skim of the phys.org article and it looks like they’re oxidizers. So you’d have to feed them reduced hydrogen (H2S?). If this is correct, flatulent men such as myself are about to becomes very valuable.

ANC politicians as well, Gwede himself can probably power a household by himself.

Cue the "Oh noes, were going to deplete all the Hydrogen in the universe! Save the galaxy!" brigades.

Limitless or uncapped?

I saw the headline, I saw Hanno, and now I am leaving this thread.

The ANC will steal air.

You got a loicense for that breath?

Ye, but no pricing, AND can it provide enough power to play Crysis?

If Gweezy farted he could drive the Kusile turbines for 4 hours.

@Jan rather stick to your Eskom fear mongering articles and other low effort journalism. Science clearly is not your thing. Otherwise you clearly would not have posted a clickbait article about something you have no idea about.

We appreciate and value your coming sacrifice to mankind.
