Abstract

The cover picture shows the photocatalytic production of hydrogen and the interconversion between hydrogen and formic acid with the use of catalysts. These processes have become important in the search for alternative energy resources that are renewable, in order to combat global environmental problems. Hydrogen is a clean energy source, and therefore its production and storage is a key to the future. Details are presented in the Microreview by S. Fukuzumi on p. 1351 ff.
