Energy Expenditure as a Factor in Hydrogen Transport and Storage
Alina Green | Applications, Know-howHydrogen is key to decarbonization – in the chemical industry as well as for developed nations. However, while it is relatively easy and cheap to produce, pure H 2 is notoriously difficult to transport and store. Most methods require high operational and/or energy …
The Danger of Hydrogen Leaks and How to Minimize the Risk
Alina Green | ApplicationsLeaks are a pernicious issue in natural gas pipelines. As hydrogen can escape even more easily than methane through the tiniest holes, cracks, and weld seams, the transport and eventual storage of this gas is one of the major barriers to wider adoption of this gas as a …
Hydrogen: A Beacon of Hope for the Chemical Industry
Alina Green | ApplicationsHydrogen leakage threatens the decarbonization of the chemical industry, but that’s no reason to abandon efforts to make the switch from fossil fuels to hydrogen. The chemical industry needs hydrogen in order to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels, an …
