Hidrógeno más barato! (Inglés)


TOMADO DE: Global Hydrogen, http://www.globalhydrogeninc.com/

Global Hydrogen, Inc., founded by Dr. Linnard Griffin, is located in Betram, TX. Dr. Griffin is working on new processes for the generation of hydrogen and oxygen.

Using proprietary electrodes and cell design, Dr. Griffin has developed a now low-voltage hydrogen generation process that generates hydrogen under the theoretical minimum of 1.23 volts believed to be necessary.

Consider, until now producing hydrogen using natural gas reforming was the best known and most efficient process. This process uses 3.5 kilogram of natural gas for each kilogram of hydrogen produced. With natural gas marketing at $1.02 a kilogram, hydrogen produced with natural gas is $3.57 per kilogram.

With Dr. Griffin's process, hydrogen can be produced for $2.47 per kilogram (over $1 less) assuming 6 cents per kilowatt hour on the standard utility grid. You can view a short video accompanied by an explanation by Dr. Griffin on our Supporting Documents page.

Almost 96% of the hydrogen gas produced today is from fossil fuel feedstock. The process developed by Global Hydrogen utilizes water, not fossil fuels, to generate hydrogen. Additionally, the process can be utilized so that NO GREENHOUSE GASES are produced. The emergence of fuel cells has created new emerging markets for distributed hydrogen, including standby/backup power generators, material handling, and niche transportation such as fuel cell fleet vehicles, scooters, motorcycles, utility vehicles, boats and more.
