Bedour Al-Sabban Catalysis Research Center Bedour Al-Sabban, a Saudi from Makkah, has many roles. She is a wife, a mother of three young children, and a MS student in chemistry at KAUST. She is working with Assistant Professor of Chemical Science Kazuhiro Takanabe in the Catalysis Research Center to develop a photocatalyst for water splitting in order to produce hydrogen as a renewable energy carrier. They are attempting to find a way to use the sun and a visible light responsive photocatalyst to obtain hydrogen from water. Bedour is experimenting with different materials to find the best for the absorption of light and to find the most cost effective way to generate hydrogen.
