Hydrogen Production

Hydrogen is an important substance with great potential. It plays a major role in energy and industry today. This course is about how hydrogen is produced.
How do the various technologies and processes for producing hydrogen work? What are its properties, its role in clean energy and the challenges of producing it? How does hydrogen behave chemically and physically and how does it react with different materials? Knowledge of these properties is important so that we can use hydrogen safely for energy, in batteries and in industry.

How is hydrogen produced? Production technologies for hydrogen range from well-known processes, such as steam reforming, to new methods, such as high-temperature electrolysis. We explain the advantages and disadvantages of each method and the conditions under which they work. We understand why hydrogen is becoming increasingly important in energy worldwide. Finally, we look at the efficiency, environmental impact and cost of production. The more hydrogen production technologies are developed, the sooner they could be integrated into our future energy systems.
