SGH2 building largest green hydrogen production facility in California; gasification of waste into H2

Green Car Congress

SGH2’s gasification process uses a plasma-enhanced thermal catalytic conversion process optimized with oxygen-enriched gas. The end result is high purity hydrogen and a small amount of biogenic carbon dioxide, which is not additive to greenhouse gas emissions. But, until now, it has been too expensive to adopt at scale.

NASA’s New Shortcut to Fusion Power

Cars That Think

And scientists and engineers have continued to study the sun’s fusion process in hopes of one day using nuclear fusion to generate heat or electricity. Devastating accidents, like the ones at Chernobyl in Ukraine and Fukushima in Japan, can leave areas uninhabitable. But these generators convert heat to electricity at roughly 7.5
