Hydrogen Buss process

A fuel cell car, bus or truck is in essence an electric vehicle powered by a stack of hydrogen fueled cells that operates like a refuelable battery. A battery uses chemical energy from its component parts, while a fuel cell uses an electrochemical process to generate electricity and receives its energy from the hydrogen fuel and oxygen that are supplied to it. Like the plates in a battery, the fuel cell uses an anode and cathode, attached to these are wires for the flow of current. These two electrodes are thin and porous. 

Demonstrate process to produce hydrogen from peanut shells and other agricultural residues for use in an urban bus/transportation demonstration. 

Scientific Carbon s activated carbon production facility with the pilot-seale reformer eonstructed and tested in Phase 1. In addition. Phase 2 will involve engineering researeh and pilot-seale process development studies in the use of peanut shells as feedstock for the pyrolysis-steam reforming process to produce hydrogen. The hydrogen produced in Phase 3 will be blended with CNG and used to power a bus in nearby Albany, Georgia. Partnershipbuilding and outreach play a key role in this collaborative projeet. 

Continue working with SunLine Transit Agency and Alameda-Contra Costa Transit District (AC Transit) to define the hydrogen fuel cell bus evaluation process and required fueling infrastructure at the AC Transit site.
