Hydrogen and Advanced Fuels and Chemicals

Globalization and climate change are driving the need to create new and sustainable ways to manage energy. A low carbon solution that uses hydrogen, ammonia or other chemicals may offer methods to improve processing. Other possibilities can include transforming an operation so that energy is used—and reused—efficiently, monetizing byproducts and realizing the potential of innovative fuel technologies. A detailed roadmap is key for transitioning to a cleaner process that seamlessly integrates into an existing operation.
