Green hydrogen is produced using clean energy sources like wind, solar and hydroelectric power and is expected to play a critical role in decarbonising hard-to-abate industrial processes such as chemical and steel production. However, project investment has fallen behind expectations because of the high cost of developing major hydrogen projects on greenfield sites.
Industries are struggling with increased input costs, technology hurdles and a lack of long-term off-take agreements that will pay a green premium. Because of this, the trend is to focus on switching to smaller, modular hydrogen generators that can be integrated onto existing plants and be scaled up gradually. These prefabricated units can be easily transported and assembled on-site, simplifying construction and reducing installation time without impacting production.
To be successful, they must be safe, flexible and easily integrated into existing processes. Rotork electric actuators can play a significant role because of the wide range of specifications available to support easy integration and compatibility with a plant’s existing systems. They also enhance safety, increase process efficiency, reduce emissions and offer industry-leading reliability. With a tailored maintenance programme, operators can increase asset availability and reliability while reducing downtime.
Growing concerns about climate change have spurred advancements in carbon capture technologies. Techniques like amine scrubbing, using solvents such as MEA and DEA, effectively capture CO₂ for reinjection and storage are emerging. However, these solvents are corrosive, posing challenges for process equipment. This whitepaper brought to you by Greene Tweed explores these issues, discusses amine effects on elastomers and plastics, and highlights innovative formulations for enhanced resistance and operational reliability.
Green hydrogen stands at a pivotal moment in the global energy transition. Decisions made today will shape its integration into the economy and its contribution to decarbonisation for decades to come. This white paper by Osborne Clarke, explores the key factors critical to green hydrogen’s success, focusing on three pillars: foundational demand creation, infrastructure and financing challenges, and market growth.
With insights drawn from UK-specific opportunities, comparative European contexts, and input from industry leaders, it highlights practical recommendations to build a scalable and sustainable hydrogen economy. Policymakers, investors, and industry leaders must act decisively to ensure green hydrogen evolves from niche technology to a cornerstone of net-zero strategies.
As the hydrogen economy expands, so do the safety challenges associated with hydrogen production. In this white paper, International Gas Detectors (IGD) delve into the critical hazards of hydrogen electrolysis, such as explosive gas leaks and oxygen enrichment.
Explore cutting-edge gas detection technologies, including dual-sensor systems that reduce CAPEX and enhance operational safety. Backed by over 100 years of innovation, IGD provides the insights and solutions necessary to protect personnel, plants, and the environment.
High-performance filter mesh is the key to effectively removing impurities from the planet’s most valuable resource. Precise mechanical filtration is crucial for efficient, economical and sustainable water treatment, as it reduces the need for additional purification stages. The direct separation of solids and microplastics leads to energy and space savings as well as less use of chemicals, which both reduces costs and protects the environment.
In this white paper, wire weaving and machinery division, Haver & Boecker, discuss the possible applications of modern metal wire mesh.
Production, storage and transport of hydrogen bears specialist safety risks. Managing them requires expert knowledge throughout all phases of hydrogen processes.
What are the key safety challenges with hydrogen? What solutions to handle them are available? Dräger, a leading safety technology and gas detection expert, introduces the key points in this guide.
For Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) water electrolysis to become a viable pathway for green hydrogen production at scale, the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) must come down.
Gore, a global leader in PEM, collaborated with FEV Consulting to investigate the impact of PEM attributes on the LCOH through a “material to system level” analysis across three distinct use cases. This white paper reports on the cost reductions achieved through the GORE® PEM M275.80 compared to alternative PEM technology and Alkaline electrolysis.
This white paper, brought to you by Integrated Sustainability, underscores the critical importance of water management in hydrogen production – highlighting the need for a comprehensive approach to address water challenges, including sourcing, cooling, treatment, and wastewater management.
The growing demand for clean hydrogen production has driven significant advancements in water electrolysis technology. However, ensuring process safety and product quality remains paramount when handling hydrogen, a highly flammable gas.
This white paper, brought to you by Panametrics (a Baker Hughes business), explores the critical role of gas and moisture analyzers in safeguarding water electrolysis processes and guaranteeing the purity of produced hydrogen.
