Hydrogen Production: The Future of Sustainable Energy

With the burgeoning demand for electricity and the overarching need for renewable, eco-friendly solutions, hydrogen emerges as a promising choice. Here is an overview of hydrogen and its significance in the future energy landscape.

Hydrogen’s Role in Energy

• Sustainability: With global efforts to reduce carbon emissions, hydrogen offers a sustainable solution to meet rising electrical power demands. It serves as a bridge between renewable power generation and the widespread use of electricity as an energy source, representing the epitome of “Electrification.”
• Functionality: Hydrogen acts as an energy transport method and an indirect electrification method, rendering it invaluable for sustainable electricity for industries such as chemical and petrochemical.

Hydrogen Types

• Brown Hydrogen: Derived from coal, it’s less eco-friendly as the production releases carbon dioxide and other emissions into the atmosphere.
• Gray Hydrogen: Sourced from natural gas, it too releases emissions directly into the environment.
• Blue Hydrogen: Originates from natural gas, methane, or coal gasification but uses an environmentally friendly process that captures and stores carbon dioxide (CCS), making it more sustainable.
• Green Hydrogen: Represents the pinnacle of eco-friendly hydrogen production. It’s produced via water electrolysis, powered by renewable energy sources such as wind and solar.

Production & Purification

Electrolysis Breakdown
Electrolysis, the process where water molecules are separated into hydrogen and oxygen using sustainable electricity, is the backbone of green hydrogen production. Three main methods spearhead hydrogen electrolyzer manufacturing:

• Alkaline Electrolysis (AEL): A tried-and-true method, having been in industrial use since 1927, AEL utilizes a liquid electrolyte and achieves efficiencies of 70% to 80%. However, it takes longer to start and is sensitive to impurities.
• Proton Exchange Membrane Electrolysis (PEM): A modern approach using an acidic polymer membrane and platinum-based electrodes, PEM can operate at temperatures below 100°C. PEM hydrogen generators also benefit from Thermon’s electric boilers, which can expedite cold weather start-ups.
• Solid Oxide Electrolysis (SOEL): Operating at intense temperatures of up to 1000°C, SOEL achieves the highest efficiency of around 80% when paired with external heat sources. It uses superheated water vapor, requiring electrical steam superheaters or circulation heaters.

Purification
To ensure hydrogen is ready for commercial applications, purification techniques such as Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) and Temperature Swing Adsorption (TSA) are employed. These methods guarantee high-purity hydrogen, which is essential for applications like hydrogen gas turbines and compressors.

Applications & Innovations in Hydrogen Technology
Hydrogen is rapidly becoming the clean energy choice for various applications, from powering buildings to generating water in hydrogen-powered cars. Moreover, with advancements, we now see hydrogen fuel cells powering drones, large trucks, and even ocean-going vessels. Future technologies foresee hydrogen-powered airplanes, rockets, railroads, and buses, amplifying hydrogen’s significance in the energy landscape.

• Caloritech (EX) Circulation Heaters: Tailored for high-temperature scenarios, these heaters are crucial for Solid Oxide Electrolysis. They superheat steam, ensuring the electrolysis unit functions at peak efficiency.
• Thermon EX-Circulation Heaters: Multifunctional in design, these heaters are perfect for:
  • Preheating water before it undergoes electrolysis, setting the stage for optimal hydrogen production.
  • Regenerating the DeOxo reactor, ensuring hydrogen’s purity.
  • Heating the TSA columns. With an efficient, accelerated heating process that is also environmentally friendly, these heaters are central to hydrogen production.
• Electric DI Water Heaters: Engineered specifically for electrolysis, these heaters supply hot Deionized water for PSA systems, playing an integral role in hydrogen purification.
• Heat Tracing: For projects that are smaller in scale or are still in the pilot phase, heat tracing can take over the role of DeOxo heaters. By maintaining temperature consistency around piping and vessels, they ensure efficient hydrogen production.

Hydrogen is a key factor in the heightened global emphasis on achieving net-zero carbon emissions. Whether through green electrolysis plants, pioneering hydrogen electrolyzer manufacturers, or the development of PEM hydrogen generators, Thermon and the broader industry are propelling hydrogen solutions into a brighter, cleaner future.
