Production of Green Hydrogen and Methane from High Temperature Electrolysis and Carbon Dioxide Methanation
Abstract:
This report covers the production of methane by reacting carbon dioxide with hydrogen at a plant located on the St. Lawrence River between Montreal and Quebec City. The carbon dioxide will be chemically sequestered from a nearby natural gas-based power plant, and the hydrogen will be produced via electrolysis powered by renewable energy. The process will ultimately result in a carbon-neutral energy source in the form of methane gas. To ensure the viability of the plant several safety considerations, both environmentally and plant personnel, must be considered and addressed while ensuring a minimal effect to its optimization.
