Hydrogen from Carbonaceous Waste Material - Hydrogen Fuel Cells Prize Phase 2 Voucher: Cooperative Research and Development Final Report, CRADA Number CRD-24-30403

  • National Laboratory of the Rockies

Research output: NLRTechnical Report

Abstract

NLR conducted a conceptual design study for scaling up biomass conversion technology from Green Fortress Engineering (GFE). GFE has proprietary technology where cellulosic biomass is thermally converted to a tar-free syngas. A ceramic membrane separation unit (MSU) previously developed with NLR can extract high-purity hydrogen from the syngas. The energy content of the retentate stream is sufficient to power the process with a gas-powered genset. Design details including mass and energy balances, process and instrumentation diagrams (P&ID), and major equipment schedules were delivered.
