Welcome to

The Fundamentals of Chemical Engineering

Prf. Gattinoni, will introduce you to green hydrogen. What it is and why we want to make it stop the impact of climate change.

The Engineering of Green Hydrogen Fuel

In this lecture, Dr Gattinoni will talk about the engineering of hydrogen fuel and how we can make it a green, truly sustainable and renewable form of energy.

You will understand why hydrogen is interesting as a possible fuel of the future as well as hearing about what the challenges are which are stopping it from being the fuel of the present and what hopefully we will solve to make it a viable option.

We will also talk about the reaction from water to hydrogen fuel and understand what type of materials we need to include in the reaction; what are the pros and cons and what we should develop further.

Hydrogen and energy have a long shared history...

...from powering the first internal combustion engines over 200 years ago to becoming an integral part of the modern refining industry. It is light, storable, energy-dense, and produces no direct emissions of pollutants or greenhouse gases. However, for hydrogen to make a significant contribution to clean energy transitions, it needs to be adopted in sectors where it is almost completely absent, such as transport, buildings and power generation.

The Future of Hydrogen provides an extensive and independent survey of hydrogen that lays out where things stand now; the ways in which hydrogen can help to achieve a clean, secure and affordable energy future; and how we can go about realising its potential.
