Hydrogen Production and Carbon Capture by Gas-Phase Methane Pyrolysis: A Feasibility Study
In order to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas must be replaced by climate-neutral alternatives in the medium and long term. In this regard, hydrogen (H2) is considered as one of the most promising carbon-free energy carriers, since it is already nowadays vastly used in the chemical industry, for instance for refining processes or the production of key ...

Hydrogen Detection and Control
How Lead-Acid Batteries Release Hydrogen Lead-acid batteries produce hydrogen and oxygen gas when they are being charged. These gasses are produced by the electrolysis of water from the aqueous solution of sulfuric acid. A Vented Lead-Acid (VLA) battery cell, sometimes referred to as a “flooded” or “wet” cell, is open to the atmosphere through a flame-arresting vent, and ...

Fuel cell-powered data centers
Data centers are becoming a vital component of today’s digital technology-driven world. From cloud computing to communications to finance, many industries depend on data centers. They centralize services for the storage, management, and transmission of data. Offering these services 24/7, 365 days a year requires a lot of energy. According to Data Center Knowledge, 2% of our nation’s ...

E-fuels are crucial to sustainable heavy transport
Synthetic fuels produced from electricity, or e-fuels, will play an important role in reducing CO2 emissions from long-distance truck transport, aviation and shipping. For long-distance freight transport and shipping, synthetic methanol, diesel and LNG (Liquified Natural Gas) are the most attractive options; for deep-sea shipping, synthetic ammonia is also an important option. For aviation, only ...

Urgently sought by business: more renewable energies
While some in politics and the public still believe that they are doing Greta a favor with more renewables, the calls of the economy for a much faster expansion of renewable energies are getting louder. Who are the actors and what is behind them? RE100 - global large companies want 100% Renewable The RE100 initiative I mentioned in the last blog, and was asked again to respond. This initiative ...

Shipping sector braces for emissions storm
Is the fuel oil market ready for tighter carbon and sulphur emissions rules on shipping? Tighter emissions regulations are set to cause a revolution in the shipping fuel market over the next few years, with plans now in place for carbon emissions cuts and tougher regulations on sulphur emissions increasingly likely to come into force in 2020. A compromise agreement reached by member states of ...

What Hydrogen Storage is Best for Me?
There are a number of different Hydrogen storage options available. The one which is best for you depends on what is most important for your application: Compressed Economical Readily Available Metal Hydride (MH) High volumetric density (kg H2/ft3) Heavy May need more advanced controls (heat/cool, etc) BoroHydrides High volumetric density Lighter than MH FAA approved ...

Designing a sustainable hydrogen energy economy
A general vision of a sustainable energy economy relying substantially on hydrogen produced from renewables is sketched as a potential solution to the twin global crises of climate change and depleting oil reserves. Core differences between this 'sustainable hydrogen economy' (SHE) and the original hydrogen economy (HE) proposed in the early 1970s are discussed. In transport, rather than posing a ...

Detecting Hydrogen Gas and Fires: Seeing the Unseen
Hydrogen usage is growing. The general public sees and reads about hydrogen as an alternative fuel for cars. However, the big use for hydrogen is found in hydrocarbon processing and other important manufacturing processes. Hydrogen is the first element on the periodic table and is an essential element in the manufacturing of many of our everyday products. We must have respect for its explosive ...

The technoeconomic assessment of the hydrogen fuel chain
Options for hydrogen fuel chain are compared with the existing petroleum-based fuel chain for transportation. The criteria used are the life cycle cost (Rs/km), Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions (g/km) and Nonrenewable Energy (NRE) consumption (MJ/km). Four hydrogen production methods, one hydrogen transport method, three hydrogen storage methods and two on-board energy conversion methods are ...

How fire can be tamed
Combustion dies at the interface between breathable air and macroscopic pieces of certain involatile fuels. If fed only them, in a compressed oxygen chamber, it makes an almost sunlike flame that cannot run wild. If upon dilution to manageable coolness the ash drops to the chamber bottom, and from there can be removed without the diluent, true harnessbrokenness is possible. Excess oxygen can be ...

Hydrogen storage systems for automotive applications: project StorHy
Around two thirds of world's oil usage is associated with transportation with road vehicles consuming around 40%. Also, transportation accounts for around 25% of greenhouse emissions worldwide, with around 90% coming from road vehicles. This situation is further complicated by the fact that oil reserves are running out. For this reason, the automotive industry supported by relevant governing ...
