Structural and mechanistic studies on manganese systems targeting catalytic water oxidation. Hydrogen fuel production from electricity and water sources, such as seawater, is the goal for this research. The present project addresses a key hurdle to be overcome to make this feasible - efficient water oxidation. This project will 'steal nature's secrets' in this by deciphering and mimicking the efficient natural enzyme process.
