Green, the Hoyt Hottel Professor in Chemical Engineering, is developing a technology that allows liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs) not only to deliver hydrogen to the trucks, but also to store the hydrogen onboard. Hydrogen released from the reactor is fed to the engine, after passing through a separator to remove any lingering LOHC.
