Abstract:

Hydrogen plays a leading role in fostering biomass exploitation, as it is a valuable reagent used in a wide set of valorisation pathways. However, the lack of realistic data of future hydrogen demand and availability based on comprehensive and large-scale systems are ones of the main limitations. To face this issue, the implementation of a conceptual design, based on experimental data, is proposed. The valorisation process will include the following steps: i) electricity production from a 50 kW solar photovoltaic system, ii) battery energy storage (BES), iii) charging station for electric vehicles (EV), iv) hydrogen production through electrolysis v) carbon dioxide capture using chemical absorption, and vi) captured carbon dioxide valorisation with the hydrogen produced. The data of the electricity available for the hydrogen production will be obtained from the project H2REGRID* [ref.: TED2021-131604B-I00], and the hydrogen production and the carbon dioxide processable will be instead obtained experimentally using the pilot plant at our premises.
