Hydrogen

Oriented mixed-matrix metal-organic framework membrane effectively removes hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide from natural gas in an energy-efficient manner. Credit: 2022, KAUST Selective removal of detrimental gases, e.g., hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon dioxide (CO2) from natural gas (CH4) could become simpler and highly effective using a new class of…

In a nutshell: Toyota has created a working prototype of a portable hydrogen cartridge that could make the alternative energy source more feasible for daily use. The idea is similar in concept to a propane tank, allowing users to quickly and easily swap out cartridges as needed. Toyota estimates that…

TOKYO, June 2, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION ("Toyota") and its subsidiary, Woven Planet Holdings, Inc. ("Woven Planet"), have developed a working prototype of its portable hydrogen cartridge. This cartridge design will facilitate the everyday transport and supply of hydrogen energy to power a broad range of…

Switching to hydrogen fuel could drastically reduce the carbon intensity of steel productionBritish Steel is now running a six-month study based on operations at its Teesside Beam Mill thanks to funding from the UK government’s Net Zero Innovation Portfolio (NZIP). The steelmaker, which is collaborating with EDF UK, University College…

North Carolina State University (NCSU) has developed an energy-efficient strategy for room-temperature hydrogen release from liquid hydrogen carriers, which uses less rhodium. Elsewhere in the world, Airbus launched its Zero Emission Development Centre in the UK, Toshiba ESS teamed up with Fusion Fuel to target Australian and European markets, and…

On Tuesday we reported that Great Wall Motors 长城汽车 plans to launch a new brand (the company’s seventh) of high-end passenger vehicles at the end of this year, postponed from the start of the second quarter due to ongoing COVID-19 lockdowns. The new cars will be powered by hydrogen fuel…

By Fleur Doidge Published: 26 May 2022 The UK government says hydrogen is key to future energy supplies, even planning national subsidies to beef up production by the end of 2022. However, the embryonic hydrogen industry has not yet tackled the investment, sustainability and cost issues around data storage use…

In other news, Shinshu University researchers developed a graphene-wrapped molecular-sieving membrane that is reportedly 100 times more efficient than that of conventional polymer separation membranes. Topsoe aalso nnounced the construction of the “world’s largest electrolyzer production facility,” and Toho Gas said it would produce blue hydrogen in Japan for local…
