Synthesis of N doped Cu3Mo2O9 as a bifunctional electrocatalyst for water splitting

Abstract

The content of this thesis includes 2 main parts Chapter 1 illustrates water splitting reaction. firstly, the overview is about energy consumption and the pressure to environment, the development of economics of many countries which causes by using and exploiting natural resources for energy demand. Then, hydrogen energy becomes potential candidate to replace fossil fuels. Next, theory about water splitting is mentioned. Besides, some catalyst concepts can be understood due to principle of the reaction. Finally, this chapter also give information about popular parameters to evaluate electrocatalyst In chapter 2, basing on the necessity of water splitting process, the electrocatalyst for water splitting is studied. This part supports the explanation about composite design. Secondly, the practical methods to synthesize material is describes. Analytical measurements to understand the composite and to confirm the efficiency of catalyst for water splitting are also researched. After that, the result is recorded to analysis and compare with commercial product
