A brief bibliometric analysis of 5,000 most cited scientific publications presented in the Web of Science database on the “Carbon” topic for 2019–2020 is done. It is shown that the world’s leading scientific centers of China, the United States, India, South Korea, Japan and Germany, as well as the Russian Academy of Sciences are involved in research on this topic. The following areas of scientific research were dominant: materials science, physical chemistry, nanotechnology, engineering chemistry, applied physics, energy, electrochemistry, ecology, condensed matter physics. The clustering method based on the co-occurrence of the Author Keywords and the Keywords Plus of the Web of Science system revealed six areas of research: 1. catalysis, hydrogen production, carbon materials doped with nitrogen; 2. graphite/graphene-based energy storage systems; 3. sensors and emissions based on carbon quantum dots; 4. nanocomposites and their physical properties; 5. energy consumption and climate change; 6. adsorption and organic pollutants. The author assumes the high potential of research on the co-production of hydrogen and graphite, which may combine the interests of hydrogen energy development and production of new materials.

A hydrogen energy system will require the production of hydrogen from coal-based gasification plants and its transmission through long distance pipelines at 70 � 100 bar. To overcome some problems of current gasifiers, which are limited in pressure capability, two options are explored, in-plant compression of the syngas and compression of the hydrogen at the plant exit. It is shown that whereas in-plant compression using centrifugal machines is practical, this is not a solution when compressing hydrogen at the plant exit. This is because of the low molecular weight of the hydrogen. It is also shown that if centrifugal compressors are to be used in a pipeline system, pressure drops will need to be restricted as even an advanced two-stage centrifugal compressor will be limited to a pressure ratio of 1.2. High strength steels are suitable for the in-plant compressor, but aluminium alloy will be required for a hydrogen pipeline compressor.

The energy crisis and environmental pollution have attracted much attention and have promoted researches on clean and sustainable hydrogen energy resources. With the help of highly active and stable transition metal nickel-based catalysts, the production of hydrogen from water electrolysis from electrolyzed water has become an inexpensive and efficient strategy for generating hydrogen energy. In recent years, heteroatom doping has been found to be an effective strategy to improve the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performances of nickel-based catalysts in acidic, neutral, and alkaline media. This review will highlight many recent works of inexpensive and readily available heteroatom-doped nickel-based HER catalysts. The evaluation methods for the performances of HER catalyst will be briefly described, and the role of heteroatom doping and its application in nickel-based catalyst will be summarized. This article will also point out some heteroatom doping strategies, which may provide references and inspire the design of other catalysts with dopants.

This article reviews some of the recent work by fellows and associates of the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science (ACES) at Monash University and the University of Wollongong, as well as their collaborators, in the field of water oxidation and reduction catalysts. This work is focussed on the production of hydrogen for a hydrogen-based energy technology. Topics include: (1) the role and apparent relevance of the cubane-like structure of the Photosystem II Water Oxidation Complex (PSII-WOC) in non-biological homogeneous and heterogeneous water oxidation catalysts, (2) light-activated conducting polymer catalysts for both water oxidation and reduction, and (3) porphyrin-based light harvesters and catalysts.

The production of hydrogen through electrochemical water splitting driven by clean energy becomes a sustainable route for utilization of hydrogen energy, while an efficient hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalyst is required to achieve a high energy conversion efficiency. Nickel phosphides have been widely explored for electrocatalytic HER due to their unique electronic properties, efficient electrocatalytic performance, and a superior anti-corrosion feature. However, the HER activities of nickel phosphide electrocatalysts are still low for practical applications in electrolyzers, and further studies are necessary. Therefore, at the current stage, a specific comprehensive review is necessary to focus on the progresses of the nickel phosphide electrocatalysts. This review focuses on the developments of preparation approaches of nickel phosphides for HER, including a mechanism of HER, properties of nickel phosphides, and preparation and electrocatalytic HER performances of nickel phosphides. The progresses of the preparation and HER activities of the nickel phosphide electrocatalysts are mainly discussed by classification of the preparation method. The comparative surveys of their HER activities are made in terms of experimental metrics of overpotential at a certain current density and Tafel slope together with the preparation method. The remaining challenges and perspectives of the future development of nickel phosphide electrocatalysts for HER are also proposed.

In this review, the evolution of hydrogen in combined cell system of Photoelectrocatalytic and microbial fuel disused. Hydrogen is used as chemical fuel. Hydrogen is being produced through Photoelectrocatalytic method. The semiconductor material put into the water and irradiated with solar light after which the hydrogen produced by different steps and accumulated. Production of hydrogen also occur in microbial fuel cell system. These are electrochemical devices that initially used to treat the wastewater. But now this cell has entered into very interesting field of research which is Bioelectrochemical (BES). BES produces hydrogen using biomass as a catalyst using small consumption voltage rather than simple electrolysis of water. The first sections explain how hydrogen is produced individually by these two methods. And then we make comprehensive review on the evolution of hydrogen by combined microbial fuel and photoelectrocatalytic cell system, which is our main motive of writing this article. The continuous production of hydrogen by (PEC-MFC) hybrid device, using sunlight and splitting of water and electrohydrogenesis of microbial cell in fusion device (PEC-MFC) were also reported. This method gives continuous production of hydrogen using wastewater under solar light and also gives the treatment of wastewater. It is the clean energy source and also fulfills the today’s demand of energy. At last, a review on production of hydrogen by microbial photoelectrochemical system which is constructed by photocathode of semiconductor material and an anode of microbial. Production of hydrogen was continuously achieved without external voltage under ultraviolet irradiation.
