From the production of hydrogen by extraction to the use of the molecule… Lhyfe, producer of green hydrogen, explains everything about the life cycle of renewable hydrogen as it is manufactured by Lhyfe.
What are the stages of renewable hydrogen production?
Here are the three stages of Lhyfe renewable hydrogen production. Lhyfe’s production units produce without any CO2 emissions (as opposed to carbonated hydrogen):
Electrolysis of water
Hydrogen is produced from water from rivers, the ocean, rain, or leachate. Electrolysis is a process that splits the chemical bonds of H2O molecules. It is done using renewable energy. During this process, oxygen is released into the air. On the other hand, there is no carbon dioxide (CO2) emission.
Hydrogen (H2) compression
This process reduces the volume of hydrogen and increases the pressure.
Hydrogen purification
In this step, the remaining traces of oxygen (O2) and water (H2O) are removed.
How is renewable hydrogen transported? For what purposes?
Hydrogen can be stored in containers outside the plant. It is then transported by truck. The hydrogen produced can then be used for :
- Transportation: The hydrogen that has been produced can power hydrogen vehicles. These vehicles, therefore, release zero CO2 emissions when driven.
- Industry: delivered hydrogen can also be used to power factories (in small quantities)
When used for industry, in massive quantities, hydrogen can be transported directly through a pipe connection. This allows the factory to be supplied for the following uses:
- lass
- steel
- food manufacturing
- plastics
- …
Lhyfe’s hydrogen production is made from renewable energy. That's why we call it green. This is an effective way to decarbonize your business!
