Fuel cells offer an efficient means to convert hydrogen into electricity, with only water as a byproduct, making them a cornerstone for the energy transition. However, challenges remain in the widespread adoption of hydrogen, including production methods (green, blue, and grey hydrogen), transportation, and associated losses during fuel cell operation. A critical issue is hydrogen purge losses, where unreacted H2 is vented to maintain fuel cell efficiency and durability. This article explores the fundamentals of H2 fuel cells, purge losses, and the environmental implications. Potential solutions are examined, such as catalytic burning and recirculation systems, to minimize the hydrogen losses in fuel cell strategies. An innovative hydrogen recovery membrane, the SEPARATIC-H2, developed at the University of Fribourg, has been showcased to enhance fuel cell efficiency while reducing H2 waste. By addressing these challenges, hydrogen can reach its potential, accelerating the transition toward a sustainable, low-carbon future.</p>","PeriodicalId":9957,"journal":{"name":"Chimia","volume":"79 7-8","pages":"516-521"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144944722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This degeneration leads to a decline in cognitive abilities, motor skills, and other neurological functions. The progression can be gradual, occurring over years or even decades, and often leads to significant disability and, ultimately, death. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent degenerative disease that affects cognition and that rises dramatically with age. It is a progressive, chronic disease that occurs when nerve cells in the brain die. Current treatments largely address symptoms without altering or reversing disease progression. However, recent advancements with amyloid-β (Aβ) antibodies validate Aβ as a therapeutic target for AD.

Chemical recycling to regenerate the monomer (depolymerization) offers a promising route to circularity, but conventional methods such as pyrolysis rely on high-temperature random scission pathways that suffer from poor selectivity and undesirable side reactions. Recent advances have demonstrated that polymethacrylates synthesized by controlled radical polymerizations can undergo efficient depolymerization under milder conditions through reactivation of thermally labile chain-end functionalities. Emerging mid-chain-initiated depolymerization strategies further extend low temperature chemical recycling to polymers produced by conventional free-radical polymerization.

Given the wide variety of pesticides applied, monitoring those most likely to adversely affect soil health and terrestrial ecosystems is a prerequisite. Soil is one of the most complex environmental matrices, posing significant challenges throughout the entire analytical workflow.
