David Jones

Nature, 1999, vol. 399, issue 6738, 740-740

Abstract: Rusting iron absorbs oxygen and gives out heat. By controlling this reaction in a flask of pressurized water, Daedalus hopes to develop a'ferrous compost heap' that can be made to produce heat and a range of handy fuels such as hydrogen.
