Swansea study finds 30% of the UK’s natural gas could be replaced by hydrogen without major changes

Green Car Congress

30% of the natural gas fueling UK homes and businesses could be replaced by hydrogen without requiring any changes to the nation’s boilers and ovens, a study by Swansea University researchers has shown. Over time the move could cut UK carbon dioxide emissions by up to 18%. mm unless the proportion of hydrogen exceeds 34.7

New proton ceramic reactor stack for highly efficient hydrogen production and carbon capture in a single step

Green Car Congress

Proton ceramic electrochemical reactors can extract pure hydrogen from gas mixtures by electrolytically pumping protons across the membrane at 800 °C. Counterflowing streams balanced heat flows and maintained stable operating conditions that enabled 99% efficiency of hydrogen recovery. The process also has a low carbon footprint.
