Siemens Energy, FFI and GeoPura developing prototype ammonia cracker to produce hydrogen

Green Car Congress

million) ammonia cracker prototype designed to produce green hydrogen at industrial scale. The system will be designed to deliver high-purity hydrogen, suitable for PEM fuel cell use, using FFI’s Metal Membrane Technology (MMT) purification process. The ammonia is stored, before being used for electricity generation.

Fusion Fuel Green partners with CCC to develop green hydrogen demonstrator plants in Middle East

Green Car Congress

Ireland-based electrolyzer company Fusion Fuel Green PLC will collaborate with Consolidated Contractors Group S.A.L. It has been specifically designed to be small, lightweight and possible to be mass produced. Further, it allows Middle East producers to store and transport the other energy source that they have in abundance: sunlight.

QUB spin-out to commercialize to technique for production of MOFs; storage for natural gas vehicles

Green Car Congress

Chemists at Queen’s University Belfast (Ireland) have devised a novel environmentally friendly technique which allows the rapid production of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). MOFs have the highest surface-areas of any known materials; this incredibly high surface area means that MOFs are very good at storing gases. Pichon et al.
