  • Stanford scientists have invented a way to generate hydrogen fuel from seawater using solar power.
  • They find a new way of separating hydrogen and oxygen gas from salt water.
  • Since the process also produces breathable oxygen, divers or submarines could bring devices into the ocean and generate oxygen down below without having to surface for air.
  • Hydrogen is an attractive option for fuel because it does not emit carbon dioxide.
  • Splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen with electricity is called as electrolysis.
