Electrocatalysis for the Hydrogen Economy
This chapter deals with the concept of “hydrogen economy”, which was introduced by John O.M’ Bockris in 1972. We summarize the fundamental principles and the progress for the reactions relevant to the hydrogen economy, namely the hydrogen and oxygen evolution for water electrolyzers, and the hydrogen oxidation and oxygen reduction for fuel cells. The activity of each reaction can be correlated ...
متن کاملHydrogen Economy - An Opportunity for Chemical Engineers?
Fossil fuels have provided a convenient and plentiful energy source, and have been used profitably in all sectors of the global economy. However, continued reliance on fossil resources must take note of, and may even be placed in jeopardy by several factors. First, worldwide oil demand continues to increase, and replacing the produced oil is technically and politically demanding and very capita...
متن کاملHigh-temperature superconductivity in atomic metallic hydrogen
Superconductivity in the recently proposed ground-state structures of atomic metallic hydrogen is calculated over the pressure range 500 GPa to 3.5 TPa. Near molecular dissociation, the electron-phonon coupling λ and renormalized Coulomb repulsion are similar to the molecular phase. A nearly continuous increase in the critical temperature Tc with pressure is thus predicted in this range, to ∼35...
متن کاملEngineering Challenges of the Hydrogen Economy
HE TERM “HYDROGEN ECONOMY” is the title of a recent book [Rifkin, 2002], but the concept of using hydrogen as fuel for transportation systems has been advocated by environmentalists and others for at least three decades. There is no universally accepted definition of the “hydrogen economy,” but it is generally viewed as the replacement of the vast majority of petroleum fuels used by transportat...
متن کاملViability of a Hydrogen Fuel Based Economy
Some “alternates within alternates” are studied and possible improvement of our energy policies are explored. The viability of a hydrogen fuel economy is reviewed. Methanol, ethanol or ammonia versus hydrogen is one area of interest. Others include liquid hydrogen versus jet fuels, the use of geothermal, solar, wind or water energy for production of hydrogen gas versus development of deep earth...
