Sources of hydrogen as fuel such as water through electrolysis and liquid organic fuel (Hydrogen carriers) have been found as potential game-changers and received increased attention, due to its low-carbon emission.enNanostructured thin filmSurface limited redox replacementElectrocatalysisAlkaline direct liquid fuel cellEthanol oxidationDevelopment of nanostructured electrocatalysts using electrochemical atomic layer deposition technique for the direct liquid fuel cells ByUniversity of Western Cape
