‘ In their study, the researchers describe their device as a “microenvironment-engineered, multilayered electrode design for sustainable seawater electrolysis.” When in operation, the apparatus delivers “a geometric current density of 1 A cm⁻² in real seawater at an overpotential of 420 mV, with no hypochlorite formation and outstanding operational stability for 300 hours at room temperature.” ‘

I think this could potentially be the solution for combustion powered generators or power plants fueling data centers. If they had a way to farm hydrogen using this technology and utilized hydrogen fuel cells it would be a game changer in many ways.

Ummmm, and undo millions of years of anerobic generation of water molecules by planktons and algae?

When you burn hydrogen as fuel it produces water as the product of the reaction
