A multi-period sustainable hydrogen supply chain model considering pipeline routing and carbon emissions: The case study of Oman

This paper presents a mathematical model for multi-period hydrogen supply chain design problem considering several features not addressed in other studies. The is formulated as mixed-integer program allowing the production and storage facilities to be extended over time. Pipeline tube trailer transport modes are considered carrying hydrogen. also allows finding optimal pipeline routes number of units. objective obtain an efficient within given time frame way that demand carbon dioxide emissions constraints satisfied total cost minimized. A computer developed ease problem-solving process. extracts geographical information from Google Maps solves using optimization solver. Finally, applicability proposed demonstrated case study Oman.
