Key Feedstock Abundant Elemental Hydrogen from Sustainable Sources

3 KEY FEEDSTOCK ABUNDANT ELEMENTAL HYDROGEN FROM SUSTAINABLE SOURCES [Pg.412]

Of all possible feedstocks, none is more important than el ental hydrogen, Hj. This is because elemental hydrogen has so many nses in chemical synthesis and in making synthetic fuels. From an environmental viewpoint, hydrogen s big advantage, whether it is used in a fuel ceU or in a turbine or piston engine, is that its only exhaust product is water  [Pg.412]

Sustainably generated hydrogen has many uses in chemical synthesis and in synthetic fuels manufacture. In addition to its applications in fuel cells, it can be burned directly in gas turbines and internal combustion engines. It is the fuel of choice for fuel cells and, combined chanically with N2 from air, it is used to make ammonia for fertilizer and synthetic nitrogen compounds. It is a key feedstock for processes to convert biomass materials, such as sugars, to useful synthetic chemicals. And elemental H2 is a key ingredient in making synthetic fnels from coal, biomass, and even CO2. [Pg.413]
