A hydrogen economy has long been promoted as a ground-breaking aspect of a low-carbon future. However, there is little consensus on what this future entails, with The alkaline environment of hydroxide exchange membrane fuel cells (HEMFCs) potentially allows use of cost-effective catalysts and bipolar plates in devices. However, HEMFC performance is adversely affected by CO2 … A shorted membrane electrochemical cell powered by hydrogen to remove CO2 from the air feed of hydroxide exchange membrane fuel cells

Highlights Green hydrogen is uniquely equipped to decarbonize sectors which do not have green alternatives. A ‘hydrogen economy’ is an essential secondary energy economy to realizing a majority renewable energy society. Early implementation of green hydrogen will be in the current chemical synthesis market. Hydrogen will penetrate the transportation and buildings and heating sectors in … A green hydrogen economy for a renewable energy society

In 1766, Henry Cavendish discovered a lightweight gas which, when burned in air, turned into water. In 1787, Antoine Lavoisier named this new gas “hydrogen”, a combination of the roots hydro and genes–quite literally “water-former”. 1 Not long after, scientists discovered that by adding electricity to water, hydrogen can be produced by the reverse reaction. … Does the Green Hydrogen Economy Have a Water Problem?
