How Hydrogen Fuel Works
"Principles of Hydrogen Fuel Operation"
Hydrogen is a leader in clean energy. It is becoming increasingly important in today's energy landscape.
Hydrogen fuel relies primarily on hydrogen. Hydrogen comes from a wide range of sources, either from the electrolysis of water or from the reforming of fossil fuels.
The electrolysis of water is powered by electricity, causing water to separate into hydrogen and oxygen. In this process, electricity is converted into the chemical energy of hydrogen, which is stored and ready to be used. As for the reforming of fossil fuels, although hydrogen can also be obtained, it is accompanied by greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, which is not a completely clean way.
When hydrogen is obtained, it is often used in fuel cells. The fuel cell is like a wonderful device that can make hydrogen and oxygen react electrochemically.
In the fuel cell, the hydrogen goes to the anode and resolves into protons and electrons. The protons pass through the proton exchange membrane and go to the cathode. The electrons follow an external circuit to form an electric current and supply energy to the outside. At the cathode, protons, electrons and oxygenation, raw water. This reaction process is efficient and clean, with few pollutants discharged.
The other way for hydrogen fuel, it goes straight into the internal combustion engine to burn. In this case, the hydrogen is mixed with air, enters the cylinder, ignites it, generates heat, pushes the piston, and then drives the machine. However, compared to fuel cells, their efficiency is slightly inferior, and under high temperatures, they may produce pollutants such as nitrogen oxides, but they are much cleaner than traditional fossil fuels.
In summary, hydrogen fuel has broad prospects due to its cleanliness and efficiency, but there are also challenges of technological improvement and cost reduction. We will continue to study it to improve the environment, help it spread widely in the world, and contribute to the energy transition.
