Pyrolysis for Making Hydrogen and Biochar from Biogas

Abstract

In order to develop greener methods of producing power, the aim of this project is to create a methane pyrolysis reactor design to produce Turquoise Hydrogen with sustainably sourced biogas. Methane pyrolysis avoids the pitfalls of other hydrogen generation methods by avoiding CO2 emissions during the reaction process, while also yielding solid carbon which, depending on the quality of carbon produced, can be a valuable resource. To produce a valuable reactor, considerations must be made for increasing yield, increasing catalyst lifetime, and safe storage of hydrogen.
