A Vision of a Hydrogen Future: 

A Vision of a Hydrogen Future "I believe that water will one day be employed as fuel, that hydrogen and oxygen which constitute it, used singly or together, will furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and light, of an intensity of which coal is not capable. I believe then that when the deposits of coal are exhausted, we shall heat and warm ourselves with water. Water will be the coal of the future."  Jules Vernes (1870) L´île mystérieuse

Advantages of a Hydrogen Economy: 

Advantages of a Hydrogen Economy Waste product of burning H2 is water Elimination of fossil fuel pollution Elimination of greenhouse gases Elimination of economic dependence Distributed production http://www.howstuffworks.com/hydrogen-economy.htm

Issues with Hydrogen: 

Issues with Hydrogen Not widely available on planet earth Usually chemically combined in water or fossil fuels (must be separated) Fossil fuel sources contribute to pollution and greenhouse gases Electrolysis requires prodigious amounts of energy

Technological Questions: 

Technological Questions Where does hydrogen come from? How is it transported? How is it distributed? How is it stored? http://www.howstuffworks.com/hydrogen-economy.htm

Current Hydrogen Production: 

Current Hydrogen Production Current hydrogen production 48% natural gas 30% oil 18% coal 4% electrolysis Global Production 50 million tonnes / yr Growing 10% / yr US Production 11 million tonnes / yr

How is Hydrogen Produced?: 

How is Hydrogen Produced? Reforming fossil fuels Heat hydrocarbons with steam Produce H2 and CO Electrolysis of water Use electricity to split water into O2 and H2 High Temperature Electrolysis Experimental Biological processes Very common in nature Experimental in laboratories http://www.howstuffworks.com/hydrogen-economy.htm

Steam Reforming: 

Steam Reforming From any hydrocarbon Natural gas typically used Water (steam) and hydrocarbon mixed at high temperature (700–1100 °C) Steam (H2O) reacts with methane (CH4) CH4 + H2O → CO + 3 H2 - 191.7 kJ/mol The thermodynamic efficiency comparable to (or worse than) an internal combustion engine Difficult to motivate investment in technology

Carbon Monoxide Reforming: 

Carbon Monoxide Reforming Additional hydrogen can be recovered using carbon monoxide (CO) low-temp (130°C) water gas shift reaction CO + H2O → CO2 + H2 + 40.4 kJ/mol Oxygen (O) atom stripped from steam Oxidizes the carbon (C) Liberates hydrogen bound to C and O2

Biological H2 Creation: 

Biological H2 Creation Nature has very simple methods to split water Scientists are working to mimic these processes in the lab; then commercially Crabtree et al., “The Hydrogen Economy,” Physics Today, Dec 2004

Storing & Transporting Hydrogen: 

Storing & Transporting Hydrogen

Hydrogen Storage: 

Hydrogen Storage Storage a major difficulty with hydrogen H2 has low energy density per volume Requires large tanks to store H2 can be compressed to reduce volume Requires heavy, strong tanks H2 can be liquefied to reduce volume Boils at -423 °F (cryogenic) Requires heavily insulated, expensive tanks Both compression and liquefaction require a lot of energy

Ammonia Storage: 

Ammonia Storage H2 can be stored as ammonia (NH3) Exceptionally high hydrogen densities Ammonia very common chemical Large infrastructure already exists Easily reformed to produce hydrogen No harmful waste BUT Ammonia production is energy intensive Ammonia is a toxic gas

Metal Hydride Storage: 

Metal Hydride Storage Metal hydrides can carry hydrogen Boron, lithium, sodium Good energy density, but worse than gas Volumes much larger than gasoline Three times more volume Four times heavier Hydrides can react violently with water Leading contenders Sodium Borohydride Lithium Aluminum Hydride Ammonia Borane

Alkali Prod. Energy vs. Instrinsic Energy: 

Alkali Prod. Energy vs. Instrinsic Energy Energy needed to produce alkali metal hydrides relative to the energy content of the liberated hydrogen. Bossel et al., The Future of the Hydrogen Economy: Bright or Bleak?, Oct 28, 2004 http://www.oilcrash.com/articles/h2_eco.htm

H2 compressed for pumping – 20% energy loss H2 pumped long distance – 30% loss 65% loss to Europe from the Sahara). Loss at filling stations – assume 5% Loss in fuel cell – 50% (possibly only 40%) Combining losses → only 15-18% useful electricity, or vehicle motor power 9.3% in the case of the Sahara Bossel et al., The Future of the Hydrogen Economy: Bright or Bleak?, Oct 28, 2004 http://www.oilcrash.com/articles/h2_eco.htm

Criticism of Hydrogen Economy: 

Criticism of Hydrogen Economy Hydrogen economy idea does not work for multiple reasons. No practical source of cheap hydrogen No good way to store hydrogen No good way to distribute hydrogen Problems with physical & chemical properties of hydrogen Technology cannot change these facts. Compact / convenient future energy carrier needed Methane, ethane, methanol, ethanol, butane, octane, ammonia, etc. are better energy carriers. Difficult to understand the enthusiasm for hydrogen Hydrogen does not solve the energy problem and it is a bad choice for carrying energy.
