Sustainable Hydrogen Production Processes: Energy, Economic by José Luz Silveira

By José Luz Silveira

This paintings provides a complete research of the main major renewable hydrogen construction strategies. Technical, monetary and ecological stories are defined for the approaches of steam reforming of ethanol, ordinary gasoline and biogas; water electrolysis with power from renewable resources (wind strength, photovoltaic and hydroelectric), and hydrogen creation utilizing algae. geared toward mechanical and chemical engineering graduate scholars and researchers enthusiastic about environmental sciences, sustainable power and bioenergy learn, this booklet introduces readers to the most recent advancements within the box and gives crucial reference fabric for destiny study. The ebook first provides a finished literature evaluate of the procedures studied. for that reason, it offers a technical file on assessing the full of life potency for every hydrogen construction approach, in addition to an monetary examine of the respective hydrogen construction expenditures. finally, the ecological potency of every strategy is addressed. over the last few a long time, the UNESP’s team of Optimization of vigorous platforms, headed by way of Professor José Luz Silveira, has been pursuing learn within the box of renewable power iteration. a massive a part of the group’s study makes a speciality of the construction of hydrogen as a gas and its very important contribution to mitigating the environmental affects attributable to pollutant emissions.

Afterwards, the system became idle with the purpose of aging for 16 h at 298 K. After the aging process, the precipitate was filtered and washed in a B€uchner funnel with distilled water at 333 K using the system presented in Fig.

However, with hydrogen being used as energy input, the process becomes feasible, as it uses renewable sources for generating the energy required for the process. The positive and negative electrodes are separated by a microporous diaphragm, which currently replaces the previously used asbestos diaphragms (Sorensen 2005). 2 Hydrogen Production Processes 35 The hydrogen ions are transported through the electrolyte due to the difference of electric potential. The alkaline component function is to improve the low ionic conductivity of water.

The water was dripped slowly and mixed with the support with a glass rod in a beaker until the dew point could be visualized. The support mass was 1 g, and at least three measurements of the absorbed liquid volume were made. Thus, the average value obtained was considered as the specific porous volume. After impregnation, the catalysts were dried in a vacuum oven for 16 h at a temperature of 343 K (Fig.
