SHArK


I am now working on a research project called the SHArK project at Portland State University.

SHArK stands for Student Hydrogen Activity Research Kit. The "R" is small because the logo is four chemical abbreviations; S for sulfur, H for Hydrogen, Ar for Argon, and K for potassium.

The goal of the project is to find a metal catalyst that will produce hydrogen and oxygen gas from liquid water using sunlight energy.

Hopefully a combination of metal oxides in relative concentrations will exhibit this property.

Check out The SHArK Project.
