It is a established fact that carbon dioxide and CFC gives harmful effect on environment. I found through news paper reports that new bus has been designed by El Dorado national runs on hydrogen energy. They emit nothing but harmless water vapour. .... Hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe, is increasingly viewed, along with electric vehicles, as one way to slow the environmentally destructive impact of the planet's1.2 billion vehicle, most of which burn gasoline and diesel fuel. It is pleasant news that manufacturers of large trucks and commercial vehicles are beginning to embrace hydrogen fuel cell technology as a way forward. So are makers of planes, trains and passenger vehicles. Transportation is the single biggest contributor to climate change, which is why hydrogen power, in the long run, is seen a potentially important way to help reduce carbon emissions. To be sure, hydrogen remains far from a magic solution. For now, the hydrogen that is produced globally each year, mainly for refineries and fertilizer manufacturing, is made using natural gas or coal. That process pollutes the air, warming the planet rather than saving saving it. Researchers have found that most hydrogen production emits carbon dioxide, which means that hydrogen -fueled transportation can not yet be considered clean energy. ..... Yet proponent of hydrogen -powered transportation say that in the long run, hydrogen production is destined to become more environmentally safe. They envision a growing use of electricity from wind and solar energy, which can separate hydrogen and oxygen in water. As such Renewable forms of energy gain broader use, hydrogen production should become a cleaner and less expensive process. Companies are now planning to build fuelling station and run hydrogen trucks on several American freeways. They are also offering zero -emissions trucks that save money and meet stricter pollution regulations. In Germany, a hydrogen -powered train began operating in 2018.French -based Airbus, the world's largest manufacturer of airliners, is considering hydrogen as well. In united States, about 4%of the nations total, are powered by hydrogen. Its eventual use on roadways, to haul heavy loads of cargo, could begin to replace diesel -burning poafoption. It is predicted by manufacturing companies that two years from having a hydrogen truck ready for sale. Building more fuelling stations will be crucial to widespread adoption.
IIT VARANASI DEVELOPED DEVICE FOR PRODUCTION OF ULTRA _-PURE HYDROGEN
Scientists at Indian Institute of Technology {IIT] BHU claim to have developed a first of its kind device in India for the onsite production of ultra -pure hydrogen.
According to team ,at a time when India has committed to zero net emissions by 2070 at the COP26 climate this is a major development in the Nations sustainable development goals ,the device is 100 percent indigenous and every component made in IIT .BHU communique says"easily installable in petrol pumps, some of the critical needs the device delivers include generating hydrogen for hydrogen vehicles,making charging of electric vehicle easy and supply of power to mobile towers ,among others.The compact and ergonomically desigene device caters towards sustainability and portrays socio and economic benefits.
it is based on membrane technology for onsite production of ultra _pure hydrogen from methanol..It generate hydrogen ,which is fed to the fuel cell to generate power.[electricity]Further ,the produced power can be used for EV charging, supplying power to mobile towers and can also be installed at petrol pumps to generate hydrogen for hydrogen -based vehicle,'"It covers a minimum space of 2m[square meter]area .It requires only 0.6 lit/per hours of methenol for the production of around 900 lit per hours of hydrogen.
INDIA HYDROGEN ALLIANCE MAKES SUBMISSIONS TO GOVERMENT SEEKING BUDGETARY SUPPORT
Industry body India Hydrogen Alliance [IH2A] has made various submissions to the government seeking budgetary support for the development of hydrogen economy in India.
IH2A has made submissions to the Government for budgetary support for creation of 10 National Bharat H2 clusters ,a USD 1 billion Hydrogen Economy Development Fund [HEDF] and a public - private Hydrogen Task force ,in the union budget for 2022 -2023.
