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 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 کاملIntegrating Hydrogen into the Uk Energy Economy
Hydrogen is likely to become a major new fuel for transport and district or domestic-scale combined heat and power systems in the 21st century. Depending on the specific production technology, hydrogen can displace fossil fuels and limit or completely displace the production of carbon dioxide. It may also enhance energy system security through increased storage capacity and reduction in the nee...
متن کاملTransitioning Towards a Low-Carbon Hydrogen Economy in the United States: Role of Transition Management
This paper describes the process of transitioning to a low-carbon hydrogen economy in the United States and the role of transition management (TM) in this process. Focusing on the transition process for hydrogen-based energy and transport systems in the United States, especially California, this study outlines the key characteristics of TM that have been employed in managing the transition. Sev...
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...
