16 March 2005 - Ohio State University Ohio State University engineers have developed a chemical catalyst that increases hydrogen production without using a toxic metal common to other catalysts.
16 March 2005 - Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research Chemical catalysts used to produce clean fuels gradually become less active. Dutch researcher Bas Vogelaar believes that the loss of sulphur atoms might be an important cause of this. He investigated hydroprocessing catalysts which remove sulphur compounds from petrol and diesel.

15 March 2005 - DOE/Brookhaven National Laboratory Experiments on ceria (cerium oxide) nanoparticles carried out at the US Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory may lead to catalytic converters that are better at cleaning up auto exhaust, and/or to more-efficient ways of generating hydrogen - a promising zero-emission fuel for the future.
