Industrial pathways to 100% hydrogen

R&D Focus Areas:
Industrial heat processes

Lead Organisation:
AGIG, University of Adelaide

Funding:
Future Fuels CRC

Status:
Active

Start date:
December 2023

Project summary description:
Approximately 30% of the gas transported by Australia’s natural gas distribution network is used by a relatively small number of industrial consumers. These industrial consumers are likely to operate high temperature processes that favour consumption of gases over electrification and are therefore interested in hydrogen as a potential future source of low carbon energy.

A limited number of detailed studies or trials of 100% hydrogen conversion have been completed to date.

A major outcome of this project is a demonstration (large scale test) of the feasibility of operating industrial processes on hydrogen and a detailed implementation pathway for the industries that participated in the project. This demonstration test would be conducted by the industrial partner with Future Fuels CRC providing research support and advise.
