The project, whose costs are promising, converts tomato skin into biodegradable plastic.

Seville, 3/4/2011. Alternatives for hydrogen storage and the use of new materials for its transport have been the focus of attention of the popular magazine Andalucía Innova, which has dedicated, in its 21st issue, a report to the research carried out by the Institute of Materials Science (ICMS). Specifically, the publication focuses on the excellence project entitled “Mechanosynthesis of metallic hydrides and multiferroic perowskites in a high-energy planetary mill for grinding under high pressures”, which is being carried out by the research group led by Luis Allan Pérez Maqueda. These studies have the objective of synthesizing and characterizing new materials –derived from magnesium hydride– that are capable of safely and reversibly storing large quantities of hydrogen.
