HTTP:: Renewable Hydrogen Production Method Devised
--------
The Oakville-based Napa Wine Company is currently the proud owner and tester of an innovative, hydrogen-production method that may very well represent the first such technique of producing the important chemical that is renewable. The refrigerator-sized generator uses wastewater from the winery, alongside special microbes and a bit of electricity. The electrolysis system appears to be yielding results, its managers say. If further tests are also conclusive, then we could see this method taking roots in several industries, e! Science News reports. “This is a demonstration to prove we can continuously generate renewable hydrogen and to study the engineering factors affecting the system performance. The hydrogen produced will be vented except for a small amount that will be used in a hydrogen fuel cell,†the Kappe Professor of Environmental Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University (Penn State), Bruce E. Logan, explains. In the future, the company would be interes!
ted to use hydrogen produced through the new method to power up electrical systems and also to run vehicles, as fuel cells. “It is nice that Napa Wine Company offered up their winery and facilities to test this new approach. We chose a winery because it is a natural tourist attraction. People go there all the time to experi...
