Japanese scientists use hot springs to extract hydrogen fuel

In addition to electricity, hydrogen fuel is considered to be one of the major development directions for future new energy sources. However, conventional methods of hydrogen production from methane generate large amounts of carbon dioxide.

According to reports from Japanese media, researchers at Tohoku University in Japan recently developed a technology that utilizes hot springs to extract hydrogen fuel. During the extraction process, they do not produce greenhouse gas carbon dioxide, which is more environmentally friendly.

It is understood that this technology was started by a research team of Tohoku University in late 2017. They allowed the acid-prone hot spring water of around 50 degrees Celsius to flow through a container containing aluminum at a flow rate of 6 liters per minute, causing the two to react chemically. . Experiments have shown that 20 liters of hydrogen can be collected in approximately 3 hours.

The research team plans to launch an applied experiment in 2018 to further increase the efficiency of the reaction and use it in the location of hot springs for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.

At the end of 2017, the Japanese government released a basic strategy for hydrogen energy, with the goal of commercializing hydrogen fuel power generation by 2030.
