Ontario researchers develop new water plasmolysis method for production of hydrogen

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology are developing a new method to dissociate water vapor into hydrogen gas by microwave-generated plasma (plasmolysis). Hydrogen production has become the center of attention for carbon-free solution, and more attention has been given to clean methods of hydrogen production.

DOE to award up to $19M to advance waste carbon utilization for algal biofuels and bioproducts

Green Car Congress

Capturing this waste carbon then allows for algae to be cultivated into a variety of biofuels and bioproducts. The deployment of algal technologies in these projects will help lower algal system cost, while decreasing GHG emissions. ethanol production), biogas purification (e.g., power, cement, or other industrial sources).

Study confirms €1T green hydrogen potential for Africa

Green Car Congress

Green hydrogen is economically viable at €2/kg and can accelerate low-carbon economic growth across continent and reduce emissions by 40%. This is equivalent to energy costs of US$60 a barrel. Pilot projects need to show successful green hydrogen generation, storage, distribution and use at both demonstration and commercial scale.
