Abstract
Hydrogen is the future of the world but to use it certainly, needed raw hydrogen from the environment to process it or split it up from the water. Water is available in abundance on the earth; thus, water will serve as excellent raw material for hydrogen generation. Water splitting is not a spontaneous process as it requires much energy. Depending upon the energy sources used for this highly energy extensive reaction to happen, methods for water splitting are classified. It is observed that catalysts play a vital role in facilitating water splitting. Extensive research is going into this field to develop cost-friendly and stable catalysts. Nanostructured materials also help significantly to boost the hydrogen production from water. This review briefly analyses various approaches in developing the conventional water-splitting method.
