Renewable energy technology claimed to produce pure and clean hydrogen using exothermic reactions; production also at cheaper rates
Here’s an article posted in Hydrogen Central that talks about GH Power’s new innovation, capable of producing green hydrogen and green alumina.
Some takeaways from the article are,
- Alumina is a highly valuable mainstay in various industries, including LED lighting, semiconductors, electric vehicle batteries, and aluminum production.
- GH Power’s innovative technology that uses exothermic reactions to produce three green outputs: hydrogen, alumina (aluminum oxide), and heat.
- The process involves mixing recycled aluminum with water in a proprietary reactor, resulting in zero emissions, zero carbon, and zero waste.
Here are some comparisons of this method to traditional hydrogen production methods, which are important to consider when thinking how far this technology can go:
- Cost:
- GH Power’s process is estimated to be 60% cheaper than producing hydrogen by electrolysis, which is currently the most common method, as it uses recycled aluminum and water.
- Scalability:
- Environmental Impact:
- GH Power’s process produces zero emissions, zero carbon, and zero waste, making it a more environmentally friendly option compared to traditional methods.
- The technology can help reduce carbon emissions by integrating with existing natural gas power plants and allowing companies to utilize green hydrogen
GH Power’s technology represents a major advancement in clean hydrogen production, delivering a cost-effective, energy-efficient, and eco-friendly option compared to conventional methods.
