The Hydrogen: Sustainable Boost for Ozone Layer Preservation

FuelCellsWorks

Hydrogen itself does not have a direct role in ozone layer preservation, but it can contribute to its protection by providing an alternative and clean source of energy when used.

Prevention: A profitable mindset when it comes to gas leaks

Envirotec Magazine

CFCs have a high chlorine content and have been linked strongly to ozone depletion and global warming. HCFCs were considered an improvement when they were first introduced, as they have lower chlorine and make a lesser contribution to ozone depletion and global warming. Green hydrogen. But, hydrogen can be a very dangerous gas.

Pop goes the diesel?

Envirotec Magazine

The race is on to develop the technology to exploit hydrogen fuel, widely regarded as offering the most promising pathway to a zero-carbon economy. On numerous levels, the planned roadmap to hydrogen seems to involve a hopeful crossing of fingers, that many of the blunders that accompanied past technology rollouts won’t happen this time.

How Reusing Items Can Help The Environment

The Environmental Blog

These affect natural habitats, produces acid rain and destroys the ozone layer because of global warming. Reusing items can also save energy as there will be less processing needed to turn products into other usable materials. The energy savings from recycled products also makes it much cheaper to recycle than to process raw materials.

Synthetic methane injection into France’s gas distribution grid demonstrated

Smart Energy International

The innovative process uses cold dielectric barrier discharge plasma – most commonly used for industrial ozone production – to combine CO2 and hydrogen at ambient pressure and moderate temperature in a very compact reactor, enabling maximisation of the syngas production which at the same time reducing its costs.

Secrets of a long partnership in gas detection (Sponsored content)

Envirotec Magazine

In more modern facilities, hydrogen may accumulate as a result of electric car charging stations. This equipment includes output relays which can minimise energy costs by controlling the operation of ventilation systems. CETCI has therefore developed hazardous gas detection systems to protect air quality in parking locations.
