Idemitsu launches feasibility study in Japan into clean hydrogen production from waste

Green Car Congress

Idemitsu Kosan, one of Japan’s leading producers and suppliers of energy, has launched a feasibility study of clean hydrogen production in Japan generated from waste, including municipal waste. The goal is to launch a first hydrogen production facility around 2030 capable of processing 200-300 tons of waste per day.

SK makes strategic investment in clean hydrogen company Monolith; “cyan hydrogen”

Green Car Congress

SK Corp, the holding company of SK Group, has made a strategic investment in Monolith , a US company that has developed a plasma-based process to produce “cyan” hydrogen—between green (via electrolysis using renewable energy) and blue (conversion of methane accompanied by CO 2 capture and storage). The Monolith process.

Highly efficient and stable Ru-free catalyst for hydrogen generation from ammonia

Green Car Congress

Although the thermocatalytic ammonia decomposition reaction (ADR) is an effective way to obtain clean hydrogen, it relies on the use of expensive and rare ruthenium (Ru)-based catalysts, making it not sustainable or economically feasible. A complete ammonia conversion to hydrogen was achieved at an economically feasible 450 ?C
